100% with you, folks - ryeguyisme and NM-Jeff!
The gauge does not make the big difference. I wouldn´t give a s... about the fact if the wheel gauge is wrong. Look folks, we do have Maine 2-footers from Bachmann. Any complains about the fact that their gauge is far too wide? There you go...
More and to me (and hopefully a lot of others out there) is the fact, that a good model needs to be a good runner. Hey, we love to see them move! That´s what Model Railroading is all about: See your trains roll through landscapes, not complain that there is this´n that wrong on a model which is not running at all (or is a horrible runner while looking brilliant...) I have been through this: And YES, I won´t buy a bad running model any more, even if I desparately want it!
Its as ryeguyisme said: Go and run your trains and use this time to continue building your layout, running your trains and have fun. That´s what it´s all about!
Plus a good producer who listens to us and gives us the models we demand. Must I buy another Bachmann Fn3 model to admire... Probably yes: a C-19...
Cheers, Tom
