Hi Andre,
I think you're right about that, but I haven't totally made up my mind yet on
era. I've always bucked the tide (ever tried to model 1890s O scale?), but
this time I might just go with the flow and have some fun. The few steamers
I've seen would fit into the 1940-55 time frame, and diesel switchers are a
whole lot cheaper.

Hello Ed:
I too, am a relative newcomer to S scale. Like you, I find that it is
really a perfect size. My limited exposure/knowledge of things S taken into
consideration, my thinking is, if one of your primary goals is to represent
a variety of motive power appropriate to the 30s, you'll be a bit hard
pressed to do so. If the scope of your proposed theme doesn't require a lot
of motive power... then perhaps?
>From what I can see, readily available S scale lends itself best to the
transistion era (i.e. Post WW2 up to the mid-50s.)
Good luck!
