I'm with you Jonathan. An ambassador like Goering is not what the hobby needs! Still, history is history and it is interesting to think of one of the upper level Nazi psychos having a side to his personality that could enjoy model trains. The awarenss of such a detail humanizes him, which in turn confronts us with challenging questions about the nature of evil in human behavior. Good grief! I'm not hoping to arouse any strong feelings in this forum and I'm sure this isn't what Joel is looking for. Good luck with your historical search. Just as a side line I recall seeing an old LIFE magazine photo of a German Society of Model Engineers circa 1930's all dressed in suits lying on a floor nailing down what looked like O scale or larger track. It was an interesting image. <br />Ralph
