Ed, You are right about Lionel being more geared to the "toy" model
marketplace, but the majority of their recent offerings in O are considered "3
rail scale", a term I've seen used a few times. So they are cognizant of what a
scale model entails size and detail-wise. They just need a little help on the
scale wheel option. Someone must have coached them on the use of Kadee 802-808
couplers hence the mounting pad with the U33C's.
