I agree completely with Dave ???? I enjoy this list because of the s scale and normally friendly nature. Veering off topic is not a crime in my opinion as long as there is interest and some basis for the veer, like Mike's cow fields. I found that interesting as it shows we really are a country divided by a common language.
Now if we start discussing the best brakes for the track for my BMW I would consider it off topic unless of course you have a highly detailed s-scale BMW M3 with brakes that can be changed. Not only would that be interesting I would be highly impressed by your detailing skills Carey Carey Probst Member, M.I.T.
