TRNW-2: Transtar branded frictions

[Richard Wardell]

Your hesitation is perfectly understandable considering the history with
Chinese products.  I was among the millions who switched to RedNote after
the TikTok ban.  It has been eye opening.  They have some of the most
advanced stuff in the world.  They are building some of the most
incredible stuff I have ever seen.   24,000 miles 40,000km of high speed
rail.  We have 49.9 miles.  I think the problem with the quality is coming
from the people who order the stuff.  They want cheap stuff they can make a
lot of money off of and pass the blame back to the manufacture.  If those
friction have a problem I would bet it's because some ordered cheap stuff
instead of good stuff.  From what I have seen they're making lots of good
stuff for people that want good stuff.
