<p>[quote user="jecorbett"]</p><p>I just opened my new issue of Classic Trains and they are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the end of steam on major railroads. Big steam was going out as real little steam was coming in. </p><p>[/quote] </p><p>Celebrate? I think, the correct would be "Mourn"!</p><p>N scale has come a long way in those past 50 years. Arnold was not considered to be a serious competitor in the market of model railroading. Only after Trix/Minitrix and Fleischmann/Fleischmann piccolo joined in, N scale started to grow rapidly in Germany. In terms of detail and quality, N scale has now reached the status which HO scaled had in the late 80´s - and that´s pretty dang good!<br></p>
