UUmmmm I was just wondering, seeing that I now have two Aster locos, will I be classed as an Aster Snob?

I have the Aster Shay #7 and the new Baldwin B1 that I've renumbered to #9 and named Pinochio because of it's large schnoze (stack).[...]

Shaylover, Honestly, you cannot be a snob if you name your engine Pinocchio!! Leave snobbism to standard gauge folks... BTW, today the Kiso log cars were announced, are you getting any? Yes, I know, just as the Baldwin they should be 1:22.5 not 1:20, but these are the first Aster narrow gauge cars in 30 years!! So I am getting a few pairs;-)... Best, Zubi

Gosh, I sure wish that ASTER had their own steam oil and distilled water so I could buy it from them. If they did, I know that it would be much, much better then what I am now using.

Steve, they DO! Didn't you know that?? Tsk, tsk, tsk..., Zubi

Now me, I could never be an ASTER SNOB . By the way................hey Zubi, where can I order that ASTER steam oil and water from? I know its got to be better then the rest.
Oh no..., Steve..., from Aster, naturally... Original Aster Sutimushirindaoiru http://www.asterhobby.co.jp/CL04_01/detail.php?id=40 and the only genuine Yokohama tap water. If you wish, I can supply you original Tokyo water for half the price!! You definitely should not use anything inferior to these on your Asters!!! I can hardly believe you did without these so far... Most concerned, Zubi
