Oh my... This can't be the norm.  Who has the resources to to throw everything away including the track?

 

If this is very common, I'm going into the layout dismantling and recycling business.

hey ron,

 

not sure i have the resources, but once 2 rail track is ballasted and glued, it is very difficult to save any track or switches.  or maybe i just do not have the patience to try and chisel them out.  2 rail code 100 for my On3 section is pretty fragile to try and remove from glued ballast.  2 rail code 148 comes up a bit easier but still only minor parts are re-useable.  IMHO.  

 

this layout, i did exactly as mentioned in another post.  cut right through track and everything.  (have to watch the rail it can get twisted up in a circular saw or bound up in a saws all) but right or wrong, that is exactly what i did.
