I too have been struck by that "age" thing, but considering the alternative, getting older is not a bad thing. I've noticed that my eyesight has begun to deteriorate also. Before I got heavy into trains, I talked to a lot of old timers that have been doing the hobby for a while. I did find a common thread among the ones I talked to. They started out in HO, moved to N, and then as they got older, they went back to HO because they had trouble seeing the wheels on the cars when they placed the cars on the track. I did not want to buy a scale and then loose all of my "babies" due to eye sight problems, so I choose HO. Although S scale would be perhaps ideal, it seems to me there are limited offerings compared to N, HO, and O scale. I don't want to sound like a commercial, but I have been taking Ocular Nutrition from Hi-health (they now have a website), and have found that my eyes do not bother me as much for seeing things. It is a dietary supplement made specifically for the eyes. Again, don't want to sound like a commercial and I apologize if I do, but it does work for me. I plan to stay in HO because I've spent a lot of time making several cars and engines too sweet to depart with, and too enjoyable to watch poli***hose rail heads.
