Reply to "Impressions Of An Interview Of Ron Bashista of AM"

There are some on Facebook that are greatly upset about the interview (Scalers, what a surprise...)  I'm not on FB, so can I read but can't comment there. 

I appreciate Ron's pragmatic view of the S world, although I would disagree about some of his assumptions.  (Like not making a Mikado using the Pacific's boiler.)  But, it's his tooling money being spent.  And his business plan has worked for over 30 years.

I freely admit AM's products aren't perfect, but they run well, look decent and get better which each new product.  (Plus, my 30 year old FP7's still run like new.) The Athearn of S is the term I like to use. (and yes, Athearn still sells basic former "Blue Box" type products, only now they are Ready To Run.)

While AM hasn't been exactly a ball of fire in releasing new products, hopefully Ron has something up his sleeve for this year...
