Forget the Gargraves uncoupling tracks, for a truly hidden uncoupler, take a look at this.

Hiding the Uncoupling Magnet in Your Yard Tracks

Glad to see you posted that thread, GRJ--it's a terrific hack for an uncoupling track that is virtually invisible and costs only a few bucks.

Others have followed the process shown in your link, but cut short the project once the magnet assembly has been removed from the 6019 track and simply inserted it in a section of GarGraves track once some room is created with the removal of a small section of the center rail and cross ties adjusted accordingly.  That  was the approach I took and it worked just fine.

That seems like a reasonable compromise, Carl. If painted to match the ties, seems like it would be pretty unobtrusive.
