Would seem to me by that description they are not part of the financial
backbone that is the driving force in keeping AM/SHS/et al afloat. That is,
they would be wrapped up in their own nostalgic world and not interested in
new products, perhaps Flyonel notwithstanding.
If what I'm reading on this list is accurate, then: I LOVE the Hi-Railers.
So what if my interest (scale) is a secondary interest. If, because of
their involvement in S sized trains, pretty soon I get to have a GORGEOUS
and SUPERB sounding NW-2 with scale appurtances... then THANK YOU to the
Hi-Railers! God bless you one and all!
