I'd switch to S-gauge or O-traction. HO gets smaller every year or my vision gets worse. There seem to be more S manufacturers and product available now than there were around 1960. With the Internet links to suppliers, the lack of interest by the local hobby shops is no longer a barrier. (Yes - I know the local hobby shop will order it for you, maybe, or maybe they'll just say they will put the order in, or the wholesale house doesn't carry the product, or they don't deal with that supplier because they have to pay shipping. Getting it direct eliminates the problem with the shop owner's fuzzy memory, or is it mood swings? Seems to be a problem at two out of three shops. You learn who is reliable and continue to shop there. The other guy just complains because business is lousy, and then he's gone, and blaming the Internet, mail-order, discount house, or whatever. When you pay for service you expect to get service, not excuses. When the service isn't there, you look elsewhere). <br />
