If it had not been for the NASG, with the “Dispatch” and the conventions, I might never have discovered the range of products available in S, and would soon have grown bored with my American Flyer collecting (TCA : Train Collector’s Association) and sought out more realistic train modeling in HO or one of the other popular scales. But I liked the size, and wanted to stay with it. And I didn’t want to have what everyone else had: I like challenges and building things.

My impression is that NASG is THE bottle-neck in all this: trying to appease the AF market that is just as, or even more, likely to be part of TCA (TCS? TCA is an anti-depressant...) whereas NMRA, for all it's faults, would push things a bit further away from toy trains. Still, if I say that in public, I won't be viewed as "nice cop" to your "bad cop"... --- In [email protected], "westfield_depot" <cborgmeyer@...> wrote: > > Yup, you found me out.
