THE BACKROUND: While perusing some of the other forums and some other websites it suddenly occurred to me. I used to envy the On2 equipment I would see in the magazines but I was a kid and couldn't afford it. Then as a teen, girls and cars were the prime target for fund expenditures and I didn't have the skills to scratchbuild so I still couldn't afford it. Then as an adult, I still don't have the skills to scratchbuild mechanisims but now I could almost afford to buy On2 equipment BUT then University, career and family and in a way I still couldn't afford it. SO now I still can't afford it in money and especially time, I still don't have the skills to scratchbuild mechanisims, BUT! Bachman to the rescue. I finally have a SR&RL Forney. It may be 30" gauge but I don't care I HAVE A FORNEY and it has DCC and sound! I had built a 12 foot by 21 foot layout in HOn30 but that scale gauge combo never quite satisfied what I perceived the two foot experience to be. I am hoping HOn30 s' big cousin On30 will be the palette that allows me to colour my vision of two foot railroading.
THE POINT is do others model in On30 because it is a more economical to model
1/three foot gauge,
2/or two foot gauge,
3/or just an economical way to express yourself and do some funky and/or chunky equipment?
