Bill...

Years ago, I collected fossils along the old rail bed of the Reading. Now that 
I am am myself an old fossil, after retiring and moving to PA (only about 
twenty miles from where the Reading actually ran), something got me kick 
started. Just last night, I realized I need a few Reading references. I'm 
already getting John Hall's book on Reading cabooses. Which Pacific are you 
doing in brass.

I know some here presently feel that playing with old Flyer to build stuff is 
old hat. I just don't have skill with brass, but I'm thinking of attempting to 
butcher a few Flyer Atlantic shells into a reasonable 'good enough' copy of the 
semi-streamlined Pacific. For some reason (the way my brain is wired I guess) I 
have considerable affection for streamlined steam. Heck  even though I'm not 
into C&O, I really like the old Hudson sitting at the B&O museum in B'more. 

Also, If Don (SHS) or AM or someone else ever did a Crusader in S scale, I 
would find some sort of ' old guy bail out' grant to buy one. The Crusader 
would be a bit too much warming and bending styrene for me.  L.O.L. Think of 
all those flutes!

By the way if Don is reading this, what was your comment to my post, I don't 
think it came through.

Thanks to all.... Gene
