I am probably more a hirailer, but have built S scale car and building kits and run some equipment with Kadee 802's, so I'll respond.

Have a layout > (2) If you do run your scale models on a layout, [yours or anybody's] are they exactly prototypically made to scale with all the detail, including underbodies? No. Brake cylinders and valves are there but piping is usually not. > (3) Do you attempt to run scale models as true to scale as best you can? Yes > (4) Are there models on your layout that are true to scale, but not finished. > Like the underbodies are not completely finished, and so on? Yes > (5) Do you have any un-scale models running on your layout? Yes > (6) Are you serious when you say that a SHS or AM model is off from the prototype 1/10 of a foot, or that the slope is off a fraction, or that the markings are wrong, or it has the wrong headlights for the model SHS-AM and others are re-creating? No. I run AM code 148 track and that satisfies me. If I started today I would prefer code 125. > (7) Are you having fun? You betcha- freely mixing flyer, scale and anachronisms. > > > "S"ee ya! > Bill Fraley > > > Change your membership, change your message settings, use our CALENDAR, view shared files or photos, view the list archives, GO TO http://groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/ Yahoo!
