# 4 seems redundant in my opinion. But if not, then renumber #4 to #3, and
renumber #3 to #4... and add a category (or 2 categories) for Fine Scale and
Proto Scale.

Subject: {S-Scale List} S needs more categories......
Gents....
Some want just two categories. Some are OK with the three categories
that we have had for forty years. Here is a proposal for four (count
'em!) categories. How many opinions are out there now?
THE FOUR CATEGORIES OF S.......
1. American Flyer: All trains, track, electrical power transformers,
bridges and operating accessories made only by A.C.Gilbert Co. prior to
the Lionel takeover. AC power with E-unit reversing. Scenic
enhancements and structures, vehicles, figures, etc. have no
restrictions.
2. AF-compatible: All trains and track must mechanically interoperate
with ACGilbert's American Flyer products, but can be manufactured by
anyone.
Non-AF manufacturer-unique power/sound/smoke/reversing systems may be
used. No restrictions on scenery, accessories, etc.
3. Scale: Trackwork and wheels per NASG scale specifications AND code
100 rail or smaller (unless modeling PRR mainline west of Harrisburg)
AND Kadee S couplers or smaller. No restrictions on scenery, etc.
4. Hi-rail: Anything between categories #2 and #3 above. No
restrictions on anything.
Cheers...Ed L.
