Reply to "WHAT IS 3-RAIL SCALE?"

3 Rail Scale

Hmmmmmmmm.....the term is an oxymoron to begin with.  Body mounted scale couplers, scale wheels, weathering, etc.?  And yet you still have a third rail?  It all depends on how realistic one wants their equipment to be.  How can someone look down their nose at another person who has scale size and detailed trains  with “lobster claw” couplers when they still operate with three rails??  I myself  have come to like the scale sized and proportioned freight and passenger cars and locomotives.    I live with the “lobster claw“ couplers and the third rail.    It is all a matter of personal choice .  And I still appreciate Post-War and Pre-War tinplate trains.
