Yes but I am not a purist. I like S because of the size and that my
eyes can still see the detail and my hands still handle the smaller parts.
I'm not sure what y'all would call me because I have a mix of AF, AM,
SHS, PBL and others. Interestingly I don't think anything I have is
Hi-Rail. The AF is AF and the rest are on scale wheels. When I do my
layout it will be on something like SHS track so I can run them all
together.
Everything is 3/16th scale but some are have less fidelity than others.
If I were starting over I probably would not have the AF since that was
legacy from my childhood and I still refuse to grow up, just old.

You really can't answer such things for someone else.
What if today S Scale was the "winner" as by far the most popular
scale. Anything else is a distant 2^nd .Tons of products. Lots of
companies coming out with a never ending flow of wonderful models --
more than most people's wallets can keep up with.
WOULD YOU STILL BE AN S SCALER?
