Bill’s Train Shop was an active participant in South Wind Models.
The Bill in the shop name is Bill Wade. He moved his stuff to West
Virginia and you can find him under www.btsrr.com
<http://www.btsrr.com> (_B_ills _T_rain _S_hop). While he has
largely discontinued producing for S, he still has a sizeable
inventory of S products.
Let me try one last time to clear up some stuff.
1 - The name of our company is B.T.S. Just B.T.S. It has not been
Bill's Train Shop for well over a decade.
2 - Largely discontinued producing S??????? No, we are still
producing the 400+ S scale products we have in inventory.
3 - Did I sell out of some limited edition stuff and do not plan to
re-release it? Yes.
4 - Am I currently developing new S products? NO.
5 - Why no new S? Economics, pure and simple. B.T.S. is a full time
job for Diane and me, and we need to create products that sell. For
the last few years, that has been HO and O scales products, and not S.
In 2011, we produced and sold over 4,000 kits. Only 153 were in S
scale. It would be foolish for me to spend 1/3 of my development time
on a scale that generates about 4% of our sales.
Take care
Bill
