Not as far as I'm concerned - personally, I do like to see "vintage" models in use - if it offends modern day modellers tough !

But then again, I'm old enough to remember Series Three, & before that Standard & Graham Farish (i think) fibre sleepered track.

Not forgetting the original black Princess Elizabeth with roller pickups.
