. . . . . . . My experience with O three railers is they value size and
noise above all so they'd rather run O on tight curves than S on tight
curves. . . . . . . . . . . .

Not that this discussion will make you a better modeller, but it might help
attain a better view of where we (& they) are at.
I would observe that there are divisions within every group that may seem
monolithic from the outside. Up in Owosso (chez 1225) there was an O gauge
3-rail set-up in operation at one of their to-dos, and it didn't take me
long to realize that all the equipment running was Lionel or other brand
quarter-inch (1/48) scale stuff (NO O27) on as broad of curves as one can
get in a portable layout. I complimented them on this.
These might be the equivalent of our high-rail - but not AF collector -
modellers.
Of course I've seen - and been annoyed b the noise of - the O27 racetracks
that Dave speaks of too.
