Reply to "O scale is for old men"

A few comments from an older man.

First and I think most important, O scale modeling is for real modelers who love detail.  You can put details on an O gauge car or locomotive that few have the dexterity to do in HO.  I love operating at the O scale club in Gardner MA.

But O gauge toy trains are on a different planet from O scale.  I love old O gauge trains, especially prewar.  I buy, clean, repair sell and collect them.  But that's another world from the HO model railroad club where I am a member who delights in reproducing actual railroad operations in 1955.

BTW, I'm 81
