I have used Gargraves on my entire layout and it has been functioning for over 35 years. Gargraves because it is flexible gave me a way to bend all my curves without regard to a radius requirement. Gargraves can be flexed to meet what your turn requirements are and cutting the track is relatively easy. Additionally, I think the connecting pins between rails is a better way to assure conductivity rather than rail joiners. I have not had rail issues period. I have a number of Gargraves switches and they are of different vintages. Some have worked flawlessly and others have been troublesome. The ones that gave me any trouble I replaced with Ross units and the problems were eliminated.
