Things Get Even Stranger over Greendale Toy Train?

Last week, we covered the controversy over the Lionel Greendale Train Set.

Now things have gone from weird to ugly to downright strange.

The entire thread on the model train discussion board has been pulled by the moderator. No reason for the deletion of a 6 page thread with over 100 posts? I guess they don't like too much dissent in their community. Another shame and example of the tyranny of groupthink.

Fortunately, a few posts were saved on the Greendale Comments page. Those who don't like history sometimes try and rewrite it to their liking. Here at Thrasher's Wheat we're trying to capture history as it happens.

Comments on the "censorship" below in the orginal posting on August 11.

Please add your thoughts and comment. I promise we won't delete what we don't agree with.



Also, the folks over on Rusted Highway are having a nice, civil discourse on the affordability of a $600 train set.
