Nice experiment. Great results. I've have always liked S scale. I used to run it under my Christmas tree. Unfortunately, I got rid of most of it and went into 2 rail O scale. It went perfectly with the Dept 56 Snow Village houses I collected years ago. I'm sorry I let those trains go. For me, if more modern cars like auto racks were made I might consider getting back into S scale. But, great job.
