Model Railroading > Rename Tower 55 Models

It might be interesting to see what kinds of names we as a group could come up with to re-name Tower 55. Well thought out, respectful and serious suggestions only please!

My suggestion: EPOCH MODELS or EPOCH MODEL TRAINS

(because this company leads us into a new era or epoch in model railroading)

Cheers! MARK

ATHEARN :)

Ohhh, that's subversively hilarious!

Because it takes a geologic epoch between the time a model is announced and it is delivered!

Hey now, don't let your ego get too "Big 4" your head, someone might even accuse you of being a Pennsy! Gee, doesn't that make you feel kinda Erie?

SantaFeCF7 - I think they are getting tired of all this Birmingham Southern!

I was thinking the same thing. Another similar name would be Eon Models, or Century Models, or--and here's the best--Neverland Models.

I hope I go to New Haven when I die ...

SantaFeCF7 - "TCS, Juneau my sister up in Anchorage?"

TCS - "No, but I'll Alaska when I get to Nome!"

Santa FE, is that when St. Nick starts singing,"(Insert Ozzy music here)I Am IRON Man...."??

Hmmmmm, no sidings, guess I have a one-track mind...............
