Subject: {S-Scale List} October Model Railroader magazine....
...MR continues to portray S scale as an AF experience. Example: In the new
product announcement column, the Des Plaines FMC boxcars are shown in
glorious color photographs -- complete with HUGE AF-compatible couplers. At
first I thought this was a paid ad in Classic Toy Trains magazine,
but...nope....it was MR. Then I read the caption which tells about the AF
couplers and wheels without any mention whatsoever of the scale wheels
(included?) and Kadee coupler possibilities for the scale modeler. No
wonder many of the non-S folks out there in the real world continually think
of S scale as being little more than AF toy trains. Cannot blame them when
new product announcements are incomplete at best and flat out wrong at
worst....
Cheers....Ed L.
