Is that still an issue or was it ever or is it just my memory going again ?

I could be wrong, and Carl will correct me if I am, but I believe the only issue with SCARM and FasTrack switches is that SCARM doesn't force you to use those pesky 1 3/8" fillers. Unlike RR-Track (I don't know about AnyRail), SCARM will let you connect tracks to the switch without the fillers and that can throw off the entire layout during the build if you forget to include them in the design. Personally, I prefer SCARM though, but I wish it would popup a reminder asking if you want to skip the filler. AFAIK, there's nothing preventing you from cutting the roadbed off a longer piece yourself and connecting it during an actual build.
