Tom, This would be a good time to once and for all define the sectors of S scale in a way that we can educate the general public. "S Curves" is meant to cover all of S. MRN is set up that way in that it covers all aspects of model trains from toy to finescale. If the column was in MR or CTT, it would of course, be slanted towards the intent of those pubs. This does present the problem of mixing announcements of AF, hi-rail and scale. From time to time I've tried to explain some of the differences, but I'm not sure how well I'm doing. As this thread has shown, it ain't easy. I would welcome any suggestions. Thinking beyond MRN, it would be nice to have a good basic definition to use in general. S will benefit greatly if we can pull it off.
As for your comment that there is more relative animosity & polarization in "O" because of the center 3rd rail. It's nice to hear such an observation, because in the past we've had contention at times. We're more on the same page now and realize that we have a common purpose.
