Bowser Loco Kits
#14
Guys,Here's my thoughts I posted on another forum..
--------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know guys,but,there is more going down then the discontinuance of steam locomotive kits.

I suspect many won't understand what I am about to say.

Its a closure of history..When I was 10 years old I built my first Penn-Line kit,a PRR H9 2-8-0,under my dad's experience watchful eye...It was pure joy when the engine moved for the first time.That's the type of joy we can't get by simply opening a box..Doesn't come close to comparing the joy and yes pride..

The Varney "Old Lady" and "Casey Jones" will be remembered by us old modelers as a locomotive that was widely used for many road names...What modeler didn't own Varney's "Lil'Joe"?

So long Penn-Line Kits..So long "Old Lady"...So long "Casey Jones" and farewell "Lil' Joe..

You will be sadly missed by those that experience the joys of building you in our younger days.

Ye did well.
