Thanks for taking the blinders off my tunnel vision! It is true you can use open frog turnouts with highrail. Somehow I keep thinking about mixing scale and highrail wheelsets (ugh!, schiziod personality again). Anxious for you to be back up and running I am ready to try your turnouts.
Roger,
A lot of people run all three kinds of wheelsets on their layout at the same time. It is not a problem at all. I run Flyer, Hi-rail and scale rolling stock in the same train... it makes for an interesting mix. I use Flyer link and Kadee #5 couplers. Kadees are body mounted.
