Ed and Friends,
Leave me out of category thing as I have stated my opinion.
BUT we have always talked about thing being too large for 'scale' but
what about things being too small! I would suppose with the vast amount
of HO items (other than power and rolling stock) many of these items
have made themselves at home on our layouts. I have a whole city made
of the small HO store fronts in a small city on a distant edge of my
layout and for the most part they look okay. Over the years the S
Gaugian has run tons of product reviews on items from our HO brethren
that 'can' work in our scale.
I just fear that the S scale police will come to my layout
unannounced and laugh!! Why, because I use 126 rail for my main (and I
don't model the Pennsy), I have 2 or 3 AF converted cars on the layout
and I use some HO items for background items.
