I talked to Erol (Gurcan) today and yesterday. Erol is a very busy man. For those who are not familiar with him, Erol is a top shelf trial lawyer who works for a huge law firm in Manhattan. Erol commutes from his home in Jersey to New York every day. Erol is also very active and busy with his two teenage daughters. Erol is a very passionate train guy and can usually be seen at York and other area train meets. A few years back, Erol was the voice of truth in keeping forum members fully informed on what was going on with the MTH/Lionel lawsuit. Erol interviewed both sides and reported very accurately to all of us. He is highly respected at Lionel and MTH for his excellent accurate reporting. Erol is a regular visitor at my home and I really think he comes to visit with Ralph our cat. They are great friends.
Erol is very passionate about the hobby and stays on top of anything going on. I, being a friend of Erol, appreciate this post as he is a great guy and will do anything for anyone.
