Reply to "What's the best track to start off with?"

RoughRider1,

   Lee 1st this all depends on how much realism and rivet counting you plan to due with your layout.  It also depends on what trains you are planning to run, if you plan to get into Tin Plate, Conventional Tubular, FasTrack, Atlas Industrial Rail, RealTrax and RMT SS are definitely the way to go, these tracks will all run all the different Tin Plate trains.  At one time Phillyreading had a point about FasTrack limiting your building due to the availability of certain small custom FasTrack pieces, now however with the advent of the Rockwell X2 portable table saw, you have the ability to make any custom

FasTrack piece you desire, in any length and any angle you might need.  All my FasTrack and RealTrax has never had any conductivity problems and it works perfectly with both DCS & Legacy.  The new FasTrack Command Control switches are completely wireless and controlled from either the Legacy Cab2 or the TMCC Cab1, IMO they are the best remote control switches on the market today, they work great!
