    I posted a thread about building an Atlas layout with Kato track I everyone has been very helpful and I thank you. I just acquired from a neighbor a box of assorted Bachmann N gauge EZ track about 80 pieces and 5 remote switches. They were moving and didn't want them and heard I was into N gauge. I bought it cheap. Is there anyone out there that works with the EZ track?

    I don't have any but I know the track geometry.

    Curves are either 9 3/4" radius, 11 1/4" radius, or 19" radius. Therefore, anything that uses sectional track should be doable. HOWEVER, Bachmann turnouts are ALSO 11.25" radius; Atlas' are 19". Might have to watch out around turnouts and do some modification there.

    You might get better results using Kato Unitrack.

    You will probably end up throwing out the switches, they are pretty crappy. That is why I dropped EZ altogether and went to Unitrack. Otherwise I did not really have any issues EZ track, but a track without switching is not fun.
