I’m a Christmas train guy. Been setting up my train(s) at Christmas since I was a boy. I’ve added to my original Lionel train set through the years and now have a couple Willliams diesel engines as well as my original Lionel 2055. The trains only get out at Christmas. So after Christmas the track is taken up and stored for another year.
Due to present space limitations I can only set up basically 2 ovals. The largest oval being about 8’ x 4’. I find the tubular track has several areas where the voltage drops so the speed of the train surges and then recedes in spite of me adding additional lockons placed around the track. Most frustrating.
As you may expect I’m still using tubular O27 track which I know is obsolete. I’m considering replacing my old track with something new. I want track which will best tolerate the annual assembly and disassembly.
Recommendations?
Thanks, Alan
