I've had it with incorrect, region biased or unavailable models

Why can’t the S manfactures get their act together? Based on what’s available one could surmise that no railroads existed west of Albany, NY…To that end i’ve resigned myself, short of changing scales, of the necessity to scratchbuild the seven SP based steam locomotives I require and the dozen or so cabooses. Thank goodness S has a following overseas, making materials such as drivers and even built up frames easier to come by, wish me luck as I replicate the mighty Southern Pacific in 1926!!

Too small a market.
Have you considered trying 0, H0 or N?[:-,]

I don’t know about S, but saying mfgr’s think there’s no life “WEST” of Albany has to be the joke of the year…Its more like EAST of Albany around Connecticut…
