Dave, are you just wanting to use these because you have them, or because you actually want to do some street running?

For streets or paved areas like an intermodal terminal, I like to use 1/4"Masonite over GarGraves track, then you won't have issues with flanges. Just remember to leave enough of a flange way when you cut the strips that go up against the center rail.

Elliot, I was just going to use them because I have them and I'm doing a tear down - redo. After a lot of cost analysis I'm going to stick with K-Line shadow rail which I have a ton of so most of my cost will be bench work and scenery. The main places I wanted to use it was off of turn outs into alley's  behind buildings just little short stubs. There was a lot of this where I grew up before EJ&E abandoned down town Aurora.
