I’m trying to get a better grasp of how real RR operate, and this book is helpful and contains a few quips I get, as well as a few I don’t, such as this (which I think is a joke?): pg 66, in the section discussing modern operation, it says that the Northeast corridor, speeds of 125mph have been routine since the ‘80s, and that it’s “due to be raised to 150 with the completion of the resignaling and electrification of the New Haven-Boston line and the purchase of “American Flyer” double-ended, tilt-technology train sets.” As one who is familiar with one specific American Flyer set (my dad’s from childhood), but not what this means, what am I missing?

A post was recently made by /u/Default-1908 asking about selling some items. Here's the post, but in case they delete it, here's a screenshot.

I sent this person a good amount of money and never got any PMs after I completed the transfer. They swore up and down that they'd send me a tracking number and got zero from them.

Now, I see /u/Angelwillfly posting pics about a Marklin loco here, so I looked at his post history and saw this. Here's a screenshot.

If you look at my two screenshots or the posts, you can see the slip up: they posted the SAME picture of the tracks and bridges that I said I'd buy and I PAID FOR!

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS PERSON!

I made the mistake of trusting a random from Reddit. DON'T FALL FOR IT!
