Tom. There is only one meaning of "vintage" and that is original
Flyer - set at vintage gauge - and that's exactly where the problem
is. Let me say again. The problem is with properly gauged VINTAGE -
as in - Flyer - motive power running through the new S gauge switch
frogs. The controversy is whether they will or they won't. As far
as American S Gauge turnouts are concerned, my testing indicated that
they won't. My challenge to Tom's Turnouts remains.
