bob2 posted:Simon - my post with that switcher was a crummy attempt at a joke. I was making an unsupported point about the market for the Wabash Mogul.
The Wabash is such a small teakettle that, even in 17/64, it would look small next to a K-28 Mikado.
I would say that the days of diecast anything in O Scale are over. Even Lionel is going to built-up brass for their high end products.
Thought maybe you had snorted a few too many solder fumes!
I don't follow Lionel, but if so, I find that amusing!
