Not All Hobby Shops like HO Scale
I just got some feedback from a reader regarding his local hobby shops and what they think about HO scale. I thought I would share his comments and you are welcome to add your own thoughts on HO scale to this blog.
“I have just begun reading Mr Anderson’s ebook and was encouraged to read that HO train lines are so popular. I was beginning to have doubts after visiting two local train stores here –neither of which carried much in the way of HO train sets. The larger of the two in fact said it did not carry HO lines because they were no darn good. The engines are not repairable and the tracks keep coming apart. They preferred the larger–mostly Lionel type trains that can be turned on and off by remote. “
I think the thing to remember is that some hobby shops specialize in certain scales and brands and have their own views that are not always shared by everyone. Keep an open mind.
