Both brands of tracks are good. Gargraves flex is easy to bend while Ross tacks each rail to the tie and is not easily bent. I used mostly Gargraves Phantom Flex track on my layout as my curves are not standard. I just bend them on a plywood jig and screw them down as I lay the track. If you want 100% Ross then you must use their pre-bent curves. High quality track but more costly than Gargraves. As for switches the newer Gargraves is acceptable but Ross is really high end. Kind of like comparing a Chevrolet to a Cadillac. Once you start laying track don't forget the road bed material. I use the best, Midwest Cork- a rubberized cork composite material.
