I hope Ryan is continuing to follow this discussion so that he will understand there is much more to S than this one group.  I would venture that this group is a rather small segment of the S world, but at the same time a fair sampling of the American Flyer crowd.

Tom,

I actually hope Ryan can start applying some consistency to the Flyer product line, but as indicated somewhere in one of these associated threads, he'll be in charge of locomotives, but not rolling stock.

Hopefully, he'll maintain an open line of communication with the Flyer rolling stock guru.

There's been 3-4 reboots of the Flyer line and as many management changes since 2001, when the Mikado's were first shown.  It was the Mikado that got me back interested into Flyer after writing it off around 1995.  I have a modest assortment of Gilbert and modern Flyer, so I'm not just a scale sourpuss.

Lionel has shown it can achieve great things with the Flyer line, but I think the corner office is the primary roadblock.
