As I have been told many times so far since I've started to make the
switch to S Scale. Patience. I'm switching for exactly all the
reason's you stated. Ready to run, to me, has taken a lot of the
modeler out of HO. I like to build things and in S scale I get to do
just that. I can build things the way I want and not the way a
manufacturer decides it should be. I'm sticking with the change and
cant wait to start to show you guys my methods of building engines and
cars and everything.
