@Caldwell posted:Strummer Mark, after reading all this with amusement I had the same thought. What we really need is the equivalent of three rail scale but what we would call it? 2 rail almost scale? We can really confuse everyone.
Rusty, I agree keep it simple. But wait what about everything "scale" except wheels and track ala Brooks Stover and others. But we know S gaugers love to debate this stuff. Does it really matter in the end?
When I was doing model rockets, they had scale and near scale. No one got up set... unless their rocket pranged. The scale rocket was submitted with a photo of the rocket modeled. I was once told if the picture had bird poop on the rocket, the model better well have it too. I did near scale -- no bird poop.
