I was visiting the UK last week, and riding the Welsh Highland Railway between Caernarfon and Porthmadog on Friday 9/22 I started chatting with a group of men in the same carriage who turned out to be members of the Welshpool & Llanfair, "checking out the competition" as they said. When I mentioned I was a member of the WW&F they said they had seen Wayne's article in Narrow Gauge World and were eager to learn more about our progress. So, we definitely have the attention of the British narrow gauge community now.
(Interestingly, though the Welshpool & Llanfair is a substantially larger operation than the WW&F - 8.5 miles of track and 17 locomotives - it sounded like they are dealing with a number of the same issues and questions we are, e.g. how long a ride is optimal for the general public, the need to hold special events to draw in non-railfan visitors, whether it's worth trying to rebuild to their original terminal in Welshpool which is across town from the current end of track and so would require multiple level crossings, etc. Such things are apparently universal in the railway preservation world.)
