Art,
Limited can be good. Like I said in another post, my tendency is to overdo.
I'd rather do more careful up front planning than fall into the trap of getting
stuff just because it's there. I'm fully capable of scratch-building if it's
necessary, but so far I think I can work with what's available. Any idea what
that S Helper Service 2-8-0 requires for a minimum radius?

Hello - welcome to S scale
My advice:
Before you get too committed financially, check to see what is available in
the road and era you want to model. S is much more limited than HO, for
instance - and this will limit your roster unless you want to do a lot of
scratch building.
S helper Service is probably the best source of rolling stock and locos.
American models has a good list but you have to be careful - they cater to the
hi-rail/American flyer set and the wheels need changing.
Modern modelers complain that there is not enough for them. Pre-war modelers
(like me) feel there is not enough for them. I guess those in between might be
happy but it's worth checking first.
