What really gets me is the "pre-ordering" that seems to be going on of late. When Atlas announced their N-scale #10 code55 curved turnouts, I was so exited. I was waiting for them to come out as soon as they were announced, and ready for at least four of them to continue track building and getting a loop of track. Since they were announced in 2008 sometime in the Spring, I waited, and eventually decided to start fresh in HO scale - DCC and sound. I simply got frusterated at the long wait and decided to move on because I couldn't do any more work on the layout. They still are yet to be available on shelves and ebay, and it's been two years. Way too long to wait for Atlas to get it right.
