I just downloaded a couple of snaps of a project I've been playing around with.
It's my intention to convert a bunch of AF rolling stock I have to as "scale"
as possible. My reasons are thus:
I already have a fair bit of Flyer on hand, and although the die work is not a
good as the newer, scale stuff, I think it'll do for the time being, as I
gather more of the scale offerings that are now available.
As a relative newcomer to 'S', it seems that this "new age" equipment is fairly
expensive, and, as I have lots of other interests, I'd like to keep my costs as
low as possible. Plus, for the most part, the more common Flyer stuff can be
had for next to nothing, so what the heck?
My first step is to get them "road worthy"; new trucks, (frames as necessary)
and Kadee couplers. Then I'll start in with the detailing; handrails, brake
systems, etc.
I hope this is "scale" enough to be worthy of this group, as I know the focus
of this forum is not American Flyer.......
