I've moved onto Atlas for better appearance, larger curves and # turnouts. The original solid rail stuff is good. Yes the connecting tangs are fussy, but if you straighten any deformed tangs before assembly, it works quite well. I don't like the new hollow rail. Sometimes the rails are misaligned. And without any pins, like conventional hollow rail, one has to use pliers to coax the rails into alignment. I never had any problem with switches.
