Hi Tom, I see quite a few kids out railfanning and they are
interesed in my S scale models but they often choose to model in HO or
N scale simply because it makes it easier to model long modern trains
in a reasonable space. I understand people modeling in the smaller
scales but I can't understand more people modeling in the larger O
scale than the less huge S scale! ........dave
