Attention S scalers -
Posted by dknelson on Thursday, October 14, 2004 8:24 AM
Here in the midwest there is a line of department stores aimed at rural/suburban/farm customers -- called Farm & Fleet (not to be confused with a similar line of stores called Fleet Farm; talk about confusing).
Just got their winter catalog, and they always have a great line of farm-themed toys, including some tremendous all metal toy tractors and other farm equipment, rally rugged toys.
Anyway the toy section in the catalog shows a 1/64 barn and some NorScot 1/64 Caterpillar stuff at what looks like decent prices. That's S scale and the stuff looks very usable by scale model railroaders as well as the Flyer high-rail types.

L&M Fleet here in northern Minnesota carries a lot of the Ertl 1/64 toy tractors also. Now if only I could find some 1/64 scale Model T's for my 20's era Sn3 layout.
