I certainly did not intend to imply you were attacking Railstar, sorry if you interpreted it that way. What I'm fed up with, while I certainly would prefer to see historically accurate restoration of #9 and any other Colorado narrow gauge equipment, etc., is the endless nitpicking from any number of people about things that, while nice to have done right, really don't matter to the importance of getting a valuable historic locomotive up and running and to the point where the little nit-picky details can be worked at leisure, with the satisfaction of then having it done right and added to the overall correctness of #9, whatever that may be.
Like I said, This sh*t is getting very, very old. I hope this will be my last post on the subject, but never say never. -- Ed
