If they don't really make scale locos then they should expect us to ignore
them. Putting scale wheels on a toy loco is not making a serious attempt to
build an S scale loco and they should know that. They are just hoping to pick
up some low hanging fruit from those desperate enough to go for their scheme.
Anyone thinking about buying one of these for scale use in addition to
figuring out how to body mount the steps and pilot should also check the gear
ratio as I've found from my O scale experience that swinging pilots and 300 MPH
gearing often come out of the same warped minds...........dave
