  Hi Ed, That's a very good point to bring up. There doesn't seem to be any S 
modelers building cars or other projects with appeal to the broad modeling 
press. We need something like the essential freight car series that ran in RMC 
magazine for years but done with S cars by a competent modeler, or an S layout 
built by a guy like Lance Mindheim to catch the attention of modelers now 
working in other scales. 
  A nice S layout article with a design that could be built using currently 
available rolling stock would be a good selling point if the manufacturers 
would get together and facilitate it. 
   There's no reason that a lot of the mainstream  articles now being done in 
the other scales couldn't be done in S instead, they are done in the other 
scales now simply because the authors are modeling in those scales. Give them 
an incentive to do it in S and they would do it in S instead....DaveBranum
