This thread takes me back to another lifetime! I guess you could say I was 3RS before there was 3RS... I was into 3 rail back in the late 90's not long after 3rd rail started coming out with PRR steam engines. I didn't have space for 2 rail, and I was in a 3 rail operating group. I remember a lot of people being surprised when I showed up to an operating session with my first fully weathered and Kadee'd consist... and a lot cringed too! I changed my wheelsets to the flatter plastic wheelsets that looked more scale. I even went on to run a lot of brass scale cars - they ran fine on Gargraves/Ross track. I had to downsize and move to a smaller place, so everything was sold. I have some pics from back then I will post below (forgive the quality - no digital back then, I scanned them in at some point). Thanks for taking me down memory lane! Y'all are doing some great work!
