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.
