Reply to "E-Z Street is not dead."

EZ-Streets, formerly K-Line's Super Streets have brought a new dimension in operating train layouts, and am surprised it didn't gain wider use. I especially like the intersections. Picture below shows one track - that I use for a trolley - intersecting a two-lane city street. I isolated the trolley track from the two lane (with common ground) and control both using VAR channels on a dedicated DCS handheld. With the DCS controller I can get the cars to move around 5-6 volts, which provides nice slow and realistic movement of the vehicles. When Lionel took over, K-Line by Lionel, they made a couple of TMCC vehicles, but then a few years later stopped production. The RR crossings they made were a great idea, though are tricky to plan for and implement. I recall only one other Streets operator was able to incorporate the crossings. If anyone else has, I'd love to see your work.
