Pieter, You forgot to mention using an AC to DC reversing unit (DALLEE brand). That way you have the best of both worlds, running on AC or DC which ever you like. Dave LBR Enterprises,llc

Your last sentence pretty well sums things up - those who want to continue to run American Flyer use AC and Hi-rail. Most "scale" modelers choose DC and code 110 wheels. A subset use DC and Hi-rail wheel and track standards, I would only consider that if you are interested in running some of the newer AF steam which doesn't come with scale wheels, but is otherwise pretty good as a model.
