As I was building an 8 wide version of the Super Chief, I got to thinking-- since

Good idea. Some of mine are gonna be scrapped the day they arrive... (I have
a mind to try an Alco PA ish variant)

Which brings to mind an interesting point: Is it *really* scrapping if the set never
got built in the first place? (as will be the case with mine)   Perhaps I'll have to
buy a third to build for comparison.  And perhaps I'll buy another one to keep MIB if
one of the numbers I've bought is particularly collectible.. :-)
