Avoid GarGraves track use for any scale flange two rail engine. Their rail die has worn considerable over the years and no longer has the original sharp edge "T" head. Derailments on curves likely.

Good advice/clarification, Tom.

I suggested a short length of GG/Ross (3-footer) for bench testing, only. In fact GG/Ross track for the bench is particularly handy, since it's reasonable for testing either 2-rail or 3-rail product...correctly powered, of course...which is the way I have my own bench set up.

Erik...Didn't pay attention to the category this thread was under. But, the photo of his engine sitting on 3-rail tubular track wired to a CW-80 left few assumptions....IMHO, of course.
