Reply to "S Gauge Report from the York Show"

Lionel is listening, though moving slowly.  If you want S scale to grow, you have got to encourage new people to become involved with S, if there is no expansion or a tiny market, the manufacturers will produce little or endless reruns.

From what I see, the Berks were well received (along with the Polar Express) and FlyerChief.  I don't think they expected some of it to do so well and if it continues, they will produce more new product.

Price point is way below O Scale and not much more than HO for Flyerchief.  It is also easy to set up and operate along with compatibility with varied systems.  This could and should drive the S market.

Constantly harping about systems and lack of product scare people away, who would expand the market and once again, the manufactures would dare to expand the product line.

Am I exuberant over the offerings?  No, but I see progress and if it continues, we'll all be happy.

I've said it before, I'll say it again, you get more flies with honey than vinegar.
