Reply to "MTH Scale Trax vs Atlas availabilty"

The most difficult 3r track I have had to install is Atlas 3 rail flex.  it is so high and thick there is a lot of metal to bend.  It must be very sturdy.  Much like LGB track but is almost as hard to install.  If you use Atlas use their sectional track for ease of instsllation.

 

As far as realistic "scale" three rail track, yes I know that is an oxymoran, all things considered IMO Scale Trax hits it for me.  Also having Dave Hickel and his brother on board is a great help.  The Scale Trax switch selection may be a minor limiting factor but Ross turnouts can supplement anybody's track system with their adaptor joiners.

 

If you can be over looking a tad on the track, for practical and financial purposes GG track and Ross switches may well be the defacto standard in my world.

 

With any track system, Ross turnouts will be the best performers in the long run IMO.

 

Also, IMO, any track with a hollow plastic base is loud.  Any tubular track system is loud.  It is a nostalgic loud and some folks like that.  But for me loud noise is just loud noise.  tt
