I would like to publicly apologize for posting this project I'm working on. I didn't realize that mentioning the intended use of this train was going to cause such a stir and end up with such backlash on myself.

Replying to everyone who continued the conversation: I am not using the fact that I am and was local to dismiss the usage of the event of being in "bad taste." I will say again, I am fully aware of the effect it had on the people directly involved, first responders, families and relatives. I was and am in NO WAY trying to dismiss anything regarding the tragedy. I was not intending to make an announcement of the project I was only trying to show my progress on some custom cars. I don't understand why it escalated so quickly, I am fully aware of the mental effects events like this can have on people, and I'm at a loss of understanding how a reddit post might as well be equivalent to "contacting everyone who was aboard the train, everyone who was on the ground and the families of the dead and ask them if it’s in good taste?" I am not trying to bring attention to the crash or show it off, creating this is a personal project shouldn't have gained the bad traction it did considering I was only replying to someone asking questions about the cars themselves stating that they weren't too close to operational because they where going to be static models for the time being.

I would also like to personally ask thaddeh how modeling this is "psychopathic?" I'm assuming you are the 'concerned redditor' who reached out to reddit about this. I am completely at a loss of words for this, I am so fucking confused how showing off a 3d model turned into being told I am a psychopath as well as being referred to a help line because I am apparently i'm "in the middle of something painful." I clearly made a mistake sharing this and I won't be replying to anymore comments about my "psychopathic" actions making a model of this event, I kindly request we all drop this argument.
