Reply Edit slotracer Member sinceAugust 2003 258 posts Posted by slotracer on Wednesday, November 2, 2005 4:08 PM Normally I don't even bother opening threads like this but the title seemed rather "odd" and curiousitry unfortunately got the better of me. I am still curious......why doe anyone need a thread "Lets just talk trains" when there are 88 cabillion threads here and at other kalmbach train related message board sites all talking about trains. People are already talking about them in every way shape viewpoint and aspec imaginable. Not only that the thread topics help define what is being discussed so one can choose to learn or converse on aspects of interest. "Lets talk trains" seems pretty generic and doen't really point to what kind of discussions one wants to have.

[:(!] keith Not that you truly bothered me, but I will repeat myself, this did happen over on the Garden Railways thread. That evolved into a topic about multiple coffee shops, which progress into a flame war. I've been in a few of these myself, and they just take away from the fun of the forum, so I'd rather not see that go on here. I can pull three topics off the top of my head that lead into flamers, and none of them were any fun...[V] I'm just posting my conservative view here, no need for me to burst your bubble. And yes, I did have my coffee that day. So what if I'm a bit edgy about another flame war?

No one here knows you well enough yet to know if they like you or not. Everyone here will post their opinions about what they like and don't like all day long. That's a lot of what this forum is about. But that doesn't mean they're passing judgement on you. Don't get upset - let the comments be about the thread, not about you, because that's really how it is. Stick around and enjoy all the forum, and chime in whenever you want. This is a great place to learn about everything Model Railroading, and also a great place to share what you know. Your age may put off a few of the more curmudgeonly folks here, but don't let that stop you. We have a mixed bag of members, and quite a few are younger folks. I'm just short of 50 myself, and I sure have a lot left to learn. Maybe you know something I don't - don't give up on the forum before I have a chance to find out what it is! [^] Mark P.

I do not agree with it, therefore I'm welcoming to the young members of our hobby. They ARE our future, after all. Model railroading can help keep kids out of things such as drugs, pornography, etc., and if adults shun then from our great hobby, then some would be likely to run to these things as an alternative. Okay. (Deep breath)Just my two cents.

Better to "be one'self" and face what comes than trying to fit in and be something one isn't. If you are young, those of us without memory problems will take into account your youth, recalling that older folks treated us with patience and respect when we were trying to make a mark. We'll also recall that we made tons of errors of all kinds when we were younger, and profted from the experience. If there were no opportunities to make errors, where would we have learned about them? To all the youthful fellows out there, whatever your age, [:D] I will do my best to keep you happy here...even by making some errors of my own, both in judgement and in mechanics. BTW, this IS a trains forum, so ...what's the problem?

No where did I say that I did not like you. I just don't want to see another flame war. Continue this as you will, it seems to be doing just fine. As long as we don't have people arguing about multiple coffeeshop-like-topics, everything is cool. Keep this going if it is successful, no one here is saying that they don't like you. You have probably started a very successful thread. I'm repeating myself, but...DON'T LET ME BURST YOUR BUBBLE. I try to explain myself further...and I make someone feel like they are unwelcomed...that's not something I want to do, I apologize for ever posting anything about multiple coffee shops.[B)] Scott - Dispatcher, Norfolk Southern Reply trainboyH16-44 Member sinceFebruary 2004 From: Mile 7.5 Laggan Sub., Great White North 4,201 posts Posted by trainboyH16-44 on Thursday, November 3, 2005 8:02 PM Me? I think that double slip swotches are really cool, and really expensive. Less fabcy trackwork is better for us low budget types. As for your engines, they look pretty nice, especially the southern unit. Is that a P2K SD9?
