@0-Gauge CJ posted:I am personally leaning towards sticking with Traditional O and making exceptions for scale locos that I think are must-haves, but what do you think? I realize this is an incredibly open-ended (and likely opinionated!) question, but I would like to hear others thoughts to help me come to an informed conclusion. Also I realize this isn't necesarily a Lionel-exclusive question, however I predominantly purchase from Lionel, so I thought I'd stick the question here since their product line is what I'm familiar with.
Thanks for reading!
That is pretty much where I am at. I have always preferred "traditional". However, there were a few O scale items I couldn't resist. I have a couple O scale engines and a handful of scale cars that I run together when I get the urge. I don't mix them; the variations among "traditional" are enough. It is frustrating though, to see a road name or car type you want but is available in O only.
