modeltrainz questioned:


Nothing enhances the enjoyment value of your model railroad layout like realistic scenery and bridges. In video volume 4, we’ve collected many expert how-to videos into chapters to reveal simple-to-implement yet powerful secrets for getting eye-popping miniature scenery and unparalleled railroad bridge realism.

    Joe, as a matter of principle, I don’t reckon it’s worth the time to use reason against hot air. But, since you did take the time to respond to this prick, I thought you ought to know how much the rest of us appreciate the insights you give us. As an Indian-American, I can’t see how any rational person would conclude that because a video doesn’t include people of color, the video’s maker is racist. Anyone who accuses you of pushing your videos is ignoring the value your videos provide. Thanks

    Notice I approved your comment – am I overated? Probably. Am I white? Yes, but only racists would notice.

    So to the whole Brutha comment to the monster railroad you are the largest racists I have ever heard of first you know nothing of this man that you are speaking and second you are giving REAL black model rail roaders a terrible name by making a total ass of your self (thanks for keeping the steiro types alive) and third take your spoiled brat entitled mentality some where else!! Do you even know how Ignorant you sound?

    Undamnbelievable work my friend..You’re truly gifted at both what you do as well as sharing.. To the hater, just go away, get a life, and do your own thing. If you want to find fault with something, start with pointing fingers at yourself.

    Depending on how you buy them. The DVDs are about twenty some dollars each, but if you do downloadable videos, you can get them for about half that price.

    Aloco,
    Why are you adding fuel to the fire. This has zero to do with race. Joe Fugate has an brilliant video and chose people that he knew would be helpful. ColeOnly777’s comments are right on target.

    What the heck does race have to do with this video?? I looked down and saw the comments and thought “what are these people watching?”. People are even attacking folks for posting youtube videos that dont have mixed race people in them now? What has this world come to? GROW UP ALREADY!

    I went to a model rr show in march and i was one of about 12 black modelers, in a crownd of about 500(aprox.) the reality is, there are not many of us, so i dont realistically expect to see much ‘color’ in anything that has to do with model railroading. my opinion: that dosent make it racist. racism is a reality in this country, no question. if you are not a victim of it then its a non-issue, understandably. but the lack of presence dosent automatically make something racist. btw: fantastic video.

    Well Your so called “african decent friends” are no where to be seen in your videos. Sounds like the guy who says I am not a racist I have black friends but I will not allow my daughter to date a black man”. EVERYONE notices color and we all notice that you have no cool brothas in your videos to reach out to the guys like myself. Your videos are kinda dull as hell. You need a colorful loud negro. LMAO

    We have many excellent friends who are of African descent, Asian decent, and Native American descent. But to us they are not our “Black friends”, or our “Asian friends” or our “Native American friends”. They’re just “our excellent friends”. We don’t notice color.

    We don’t notice people’s color — we’re all humans and we all bleed the same — red. To us, only racists make an issue out of people’s skin color.

    1 star. You need people of color in it. Everyone is not an American white man!

    You need a cool brotha like me in your videos to reach out to the rest of us cool brothas in this leisure activity.

    Yeah, but you were talking about scenery and then like he’s about to say something then it switches to bridges. This is kinda helpful but it would be nice if the tunnels and the bridges were at the end.
