I used the Atlas turntable with Gargraves track on my permanent layout. It indexed perfectly but was too flimsy to support my scale engines. The platter flexed when an engine crossed over when both entering and exiting. Hope yours works for you. Not all owners had the problem I had. I may very well have had a defective unit, as I bought it from an individual on eBay. Sold as new, but the inside packaged items appeared to have been opened. So, I bought a scale one costing about $1500.00 at York in 2009. 7 years later it's still sitting in a corner uninstalled. I did not take take into consideration what was beneath the area where it was to be installed: about 50 wires and table framing boards. While the Atlas does not have the pit it only takes up surface space. By the way, the Atlas roundhouse fits the turntable perfectly. Sorry for the lengthy post, but I will be very interested in your experience with this. I may very well give it a try again.
