Lionel D 223 Display Layout

I'am currently building a D 223 Dealer display. The only difference is i lengthened mine by 1 foot  to 4x9 so i could add the culvert loader to go with the unloader. I'am building it with super o track that thankfully i have a nice supply in ex. condition. I have seen a few of the super o dealer display's built with fastrack and  I just don't get. No matter what people do this track  to enhance it it just does not look good.  Many modeler's , myself included were very disappointed  when lionel came out with this track system and I'm still trying to figure out what void Lionel was trying to fill with it. The road bed is too wide, and rails look like reflective chrome.  If you are going to run trains around the Christmas tree maybe it could reduce the carpet lint but that's it. I refer to as Chinese carpet track.  I did see a D 264 display built with Atlas track and it looked great.
