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.
I remember reading somewhere on this forum to glue the ballast only on the outside of the tracks. Inside the rails the ballast is just sitting free. The poster commented that it would be easier to dismantle. So that is what I started doing on mine.
Good Luck.
