Personally I think the Bachmann initiative is a good one which we should help and encourage not snipe and carp at - it has a way to go to be always right, well accepted and "best presented" but it will only get there if we are positive and helpful.

Agreed, the system is there to try to simplify things for people and enable an easier understanding of the general changes. Bachmann are trying to assist the modeller.

Consider 16 year old, internet literate, potential modeller who wonders what the Bachmann Era thingamyjig is that he saw on a box in the model shop today. Types it into his search engine of choice a lo and behold, up come this thread for him to "learn" all about what it means. I am not joking either. I simply typed Bachmann Era into Google and this thread actually is the first thing on the list.

Lets all stop bickering and do more modelling - myself included

...and on that positive note we'll wrap this one up right there. All views have been expressed and noted.
