Hey!! Is there an echo in here?......here?.....here?....here?...here?..here?.here?

No echo.  Just that great minds tend to either think alike, or are in the same gutter...  It took me so long to answer, that by that time you, speedy guy, already did! I just hope the BNΣΦ gets his S trains running like he wants!

Thanks a lot, Mark and Jerry, for your quick responses and extremely informative replies.

Your echo is like the sound of music or better...like the noise of a diesel engine!

Yesterday I received my first package from AM, which contained a FM Trainmaster engine, two tank cars and some spare parts, all with scale wheels equipped. I am now proud of my very first S-scale rolling stock. Some of the delivered extra spare parts are the massive AF-compatible couplers and the tiny Kadee-compatible couplers. When comparing S-Trax vs. FasTrack, I like more the visual appearance of MTH's trackbed, but I guess everyone has a different taste.

In parallel I have started my own scratch-building projects in 1/64, where I combine various techniques, such as coated tinplate and 3D-printing. One example are my heater cars, which I made before for 3-rail O-gauge and now am repeating the same procedure in S scale for many roadnames. At the moment I will put hi-rail wheels, because I don't have any spare scale wheelset. If someone is interested, just let me know.
