Reply to "Why isn't O Scale 2-Rail more popular with model railroaders? What can be done to increase 2RS's popularity?"

  For me to continue in O Scale Trains, Rapido, or Horizon will have to get into the game ....

Don't hold your breath waiting for Rapido to enter the 2-rail O sector. I asked them directly on a British Forum about it, and it was a very definite "No!" - they just don't see a viable financial future in 2-rail, because the overwhelming clamour would be for 3-rail versions, a market in which they have no intention of competing.

They are actually heavily involved in producing 4mm scale models of British buses - the fact they would rather make these (and other British models) instead of setting the U.S. 2-rail O market ablaze with something awesome - to me says a great deal about the state American 2-rail is actually in.
