<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>I have worked with,
consulted, and been on the ground up on projects from HO, O and G -1/32 scale.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>I have an extensive back
ground, as I retired a the age of 50 years, which I missed my goal by 5
years.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>Our friend at Aristo Craft
has also written the pros and cons of the model business and discussed the
frustrations.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>It is also very much common
sense when you compare what you say your investor would like to do </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>and what other G scale
manufactures are actually doing. A high school student could see that{ one
if he could read}.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>Again, I wish him well, but
we all know better. I sure do not wish to put a fire hose on some one who is
willing to spend $ $ $ ></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#000080 size=3>I sure would like a N&W
M in 1/32 scale. Just for the shake of it all- Name one G scale articulated
locomotive under &1000.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV> At these suggested prices the models cannot be of any good
quality. The "Scale" scale is 1/32.<BR><BR> MTH makes a good scale 1/32
product, if your source can follow these premises then you may have something,
but they will not <BR> be at the prices you quoted far from it! The HO
market is reaching those prices, how in the world does he think a G scale
product<BR> would be when they a double their size. I so not think your
investor is living in reality. I wish him well, but this will not
happen.<BR><BR> Stephen Rineair<BR><BR><BR>Stephen, <BR>What experience do
you have in actually designing, manufacturing, importing and distributing a
product that leads you to say this? Also, are you the propietor of Track 2
Hobbies? <BR>Robb Fisher<BR>RFDI <BR>
