Re:(erielack) Rapido

Rapido acknowledges the fantasy schemes they offer. They do it purely to 
amortize the cost of the tooling. Those who want "pretty" Erie cars may buy 
them. Those of use who want accurate Erie cars will avoid them. I have no 
problem with Rapido's  business practice since they are up front with the 
information. My dealer can't keep Rapido cars in stock. Many in the hobby 
are still more interested in "pretty" than in accurate.
