<font face="times new roman,times" size="4">Although I appreciate LGB for all they have done to create and promote garden railways, I feel the time may have come to reinvest in the scales used in this country. After all, LGB scale represents European narrow gauge, a gauge not used here. I would prefer the 1:20.3 scale for 3' narrow gauge. Most American modelers model standard gauge prototypes, something that LGB doesn't practice. Don't get me wrong. LGB produces some of the best quality trains in the world, but their audience is mainly European. For the record, LGB was formed, not as a garden railway provider, but as a toy train manufacturer(similar to Lionel). Their robust construction was to make them child-proof. You can run over their track with a car and not damage it. I don't know of any child in this country that plays with LGB trains. I'm sorry to see them go, but maybe now we can work in our own scales. The NMRA never recognized LGB as a scale , but as a tinplate toy, until recently.</font>
