To continue, my thoughts are that the HI-rail folks with scale-like
layouts can easily blend with many of the better scale layouts (likewise
an ordinary hi-rail layout with AF track, stock Plasticville and green
painted plywood is probably equal to some scale layouts that never seen
to get off the ground). However when you add in the narrow gauge
mixture, it's harder to blend in with those guys in most cases--they
don't want to know hi-rail and I assume the opposite is also true. I've
had AF guys come to visit and can't figure out why I don't have a AF
coal loader to load my hoppers!
