New S Scale Manufacturer

From the S Scale Yahoo Board:

"Subject: {S-Scale List} New S manufacturer at Indy NMRA Trainshow

There will be a brand new S Scale manufacturer at Indy this week.  He will be exhibiting samples of his new S Scale line. As a favor to us (Des Plaines Hobbies/S Scale America), he will be showing an assembled model of our Thrall 2743 gondola. We received the production parts from our molder last week. They will be going to China for assembly shortly, but for those that can't wait, we will be bringing a few kit versions to Novi next month.

Oh, you want to hear about the new S manufacturer.  It is Fox Valley Models (almost sounds like an adult escort service), respected manufacturer of N and HO.  Sitting under our gondola will be a sample of their new S Scale flex track. It will be code 138, compatible with Lionel and MTH. What's that you say? We need switches, not just flex track. Well, sitting beside the track will be prototype samples of true #5 turnouts. Next question, scale or hirail? Both. He is doing both a scale #5 left and right and a hirail left and right.  Yes Mildred, that is correct, a total of 4 turnouts, two for scale guys and 2 for the hirailrailers.

Questions? Go to Indy and stop by the Fox Valley Models booth and see for yourself. Cost? Don't have a clue. Ask FVM. DCC  compatible? Come on, this is 2016.

Thanks for reading, and oh, thanks to all of you who participated in our 33rd anniversary sale and our July 4th flash sale. No man should be allowed to have this much fun.
