Ah come on Art! ha! Some of the best times I had as a child was to run
my AF Atlantic into a wooden block 'fort' of some kind and run over a
bunch of toy soldiers. I think we also ran it off the end of a
cardboard trestle after seeing the movie 'Bridge on the River Kwye'
(sure I spelled that wrong). Two cars on my original train are on my
layout today as I still 'cared' for the trains. Unfortunately the
Atlantic suffered a terminal case of E unit disease! but unrelated to
countless crashes in it's 8 year life span. Heck it's okay to run your
trains "just like the real Union Pacific"!
Actually the solution might be to have two sets of trains--a
cheepie set and the good stuff!
