Not sure why anyone would be surprised over the swinging pilot from Lionel. They have shown it that way in every picture. Not sticking up for them, just saying.

Still amazed over the swiveling steps on the U-boat. Geeeez. Have NEVER seen that on a 12" to the foot job. They MUST have had some reference to real locomotives, some where, some body, some how?????????? Undoubtedly easier to produce that way, don't need to strengthen the car body ends, the coil coupler is truck mounted, swings like a saloon door with the truck. Paul went to the seminar today, he has been building with us for at least 10 yrs. He enjoyed it. I know some of the ATLAS crew, good people. I figure I can always learn something, AND should be willing to do so. I WILL report back. Jim In a message dated 10/13/2011 10:57:50 P.M.

The Atlas layout building presentation sounds like it will be a good one :) Roy [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
