LIFE LESSONS LEARNED
Sometimes lifes lessons are difficult at best, terribly expensive, disheartening and shakes your faith in yourself as well as your fellow man at worst.
Rick the Railroad Guy recently had an experience where he made a "deal" with and a commitment to somebody. Unfortunately because Rick trusts people and always tries to live up to his commitments he allowed things to get out of hand and the individual took unfair advantage of the situation causing potentially serious consequences for Empire Builder Railroad Designs.
To say the least we will be more cognizant in the future of what our clients are asking our employees to do if we are not on a clients property.

Worlds Longest Model Train
During our last and final run of The Worlds Longest Model Train we had several people beg us to make another attempt. We got 7 trains hooked together twice before it all fell apart.
At this point the reason we decided to quit is because we have simply run out of funds. Now it's up to you all. If you want us to make another attempt - and try until we get it right, we're going to need your help.
When we first started this project we tried pre-selling the loco's and the trains, but I think people were leary and afraid it was a scam and/or rip off. I think people now realize we are serious and that we have every intention of breaking this record eventually.
There have been two suggestions:
1. Donations - pure donations. You can donate to our paypal account and we will hold the funds there until and if we decide to make another run. If we don't make another effort, within one year we will refund your money. We have already received our 1st donation of $125.00
2. Pre-purchase the locomotives (per unit), with locolinc, batteries and traction tires. Our cost for the above is $484.00. You will need to add packing and shipping which will be roughly $50. Additionally if you want the Locolinc Transmitter - add $280.00.
If you choose to purchase the locomotives with or without transmitter, even if the train never runs, the locomotives will be yours. Understanding they are used, we will reserve the right to hold onto them for 1 year. Hoping to make another attempt.
Again, after the train runs and we have been successful at either breaking the current record, or setting a Large Scale Record, all ofd the equipment will double in price as commemorative items.
Get your order in now and reserve your commemorative locomotives before the price goes up.
