Is that John Neal, the man who puts 4 wide trains on HO trucks, 14 wide on G
scale trucks and recently tried to convince others to forsake Lego track
altogether and switch to O scale train track and trucks? The same person
who wanted to cut up coke cans, place stickers on them and wrap them around
the Lego trains for a more realistic look? Too much of a purist? Please,
you are making me laugh so hard, the soda is coming out of my nose. My
sides are aching and my nose is burning. Please stop!!!
