If plentitude is a plus, then I have to agree that AF stuff does actually have 
SOME value.  But I would have to say that only in SOME or maybe even MOST 
cases, but not ALL cases.  Although I don't speak from experience with ALL AF 
offerings, I'm sure that there are some that are just too far removed from any 
prototype to be good for anyone other than AF fans or would just take far too 
much work to improve.

But, in my case, I have to say that I could use at least TWO more of the AF 
gondola seen in the photos below :

Anyone got a few to spare?  Contact me off-list.

Thanks.

  To the AF Converters:

  After finally getting back into the S-scale site, I saw your conversions.  
Great work!  Bob makes a very good point: The AF stuff abounds out there and 
can be converted to more closely reflect a prototype.  At the moment with the 
gap in production of kits or ready-to-run models because of readjustments going 
on in China, convesions of AF bodies are a tempting proposition.
