"Attention! At 2:00 PM, Bob Grubba will be giving the 'Ethics in Manufacturing' seminar in the Orange Hall meeting room."
I d*** near peed my pants laughing. Anybody else remember that?

I certainly do remember that. Amazing that K-Line would hire him after what he cost Lionel. But it really was very funny.

Gerry,
I was shocked, absolutely shocked that Maury Kline hired him. What was he thinking?
Tells you something, doesn't it?
George
Maury Kline was no angel himself and there was a very good reason on why Maury hired him. Bob Grubba had allot of contacts with builders overseas and Maury wanted what both Lionel and MTH was getting into----the scale 3 rail segment of the hobby.
