If they're not cheering, they're jeering, thats about it.
LOL!
Oh come on... what does that even mean 😏 All I am doing is observing the most interesting story in our hobby in decades and asking questions. And BTW, I am not the only one.
Stick to the topic on hand (hint... it’s not me) 😏

Interesting. Can you post a link to the presentations? Thanks!

You know what Rick means. You haven’t asked a single question in this thread and all you do is say negative stuff about a company that you have no interest in whether it is their command system or their products.
I sincerely hope we do get some news tomorrow and I hope it is good news for the hobby as a whole.
@Bob posted:I only run TMCC but have quite a few MTH Diesel locomotives on my railroad. For years I've been gutting the DCS components and replacing with ERR stuff. Usually the DCS boards, couplers, speaker, lights, etc. can be sold for about what the ERR replacements cost.
I do that when I can, but the problem for me is that ERR doesn't offer Baldwin sound boards, and those are the majority of my MTH locos. So now I can only run them in conventional mode. And no, I'm not buying a DCS system.

While I can understand the radical locomotive lobotomy, that’s too much trouble for me. If I can’t find a Legacy locomotive in the Canadian or New England road name I want, I am having the locomotive custom painted. Still easier that getting another command control system.

Just for the record, I have never said anything negative about any train company or train company leadership on this forum... ever. Now let’s see what happens at TrainWorld tomorrow!

I've done that too. it takes longer though and costs as much or more, in my experience.

Well, I am going to have a Lionel Legacy GE AC6000 demo transformed into a Central Maine and Quebec Railway #1006
"You know what Rick means."
We know that making sarcastic or other negative comments about other posters is a violation of the terms of service. Just saying. Someone might want to be reminded, so I figure I'm doing those individuals a favor. 
The presentations are on the TrainWorld YouTube channel and Facebook live. Here's the YouTube channel. The manufacturers' presentations are tomorrow. They can be watched after the fact, of course, as well as live. The advantage of after the fact is that you can fast forward past any presentations that do not interest you.

Thank you! I am looking forward to seeing them today.
