Agree. It's all about revenue per cubic foot of space, but maybe while they sell some decorative villages near the Christmas lights which are close to O gauge by chance, have a few Christmas starter sets and accessories and see how it does? Give each store like 10 of sets or something in one pile. They would have to do the math to see a few Christmas starter sets make sense. I remember one year they had some battery operated plastic G scale boxed up on in the Christmas section and after the holidays, my friend picked the last one up they still had. Of course that was many years ago, so I would guess it just didn't make financial sense even for that inexpensive battery train that was designed to only go around the tree in a circle.
It's okay to dream...
