Looks good, doesn't it, Don? I wonder if you know who on another forum would still be on his hobby horse if he saw that picture. Thanks for the link.
Thanks for posting Don! The new track looks to be first class, and hopefully cheaper than Micro Engineering and Peco.
Is the frog unit a casting? If it is, it is a pity. Nothing looks as good as real rails embedded in the base ties. Peco looks far better in ths regard.
A question I have about the code 55 rail - is the foot of the rail the same dimensions as Micro Engineering's code 55? Why I ask is I use Peco's Z Scale joiners on ME trackage as they are smaller than the ME joiners and are a very tight fit. Great conductivity and almost invisible after painting. Gary.
In addition, Atlas has stock numbers for all of their N Code 55 track components on their website here: http://www.atlasrr.com/highlights/ncode55.asp eNjoy Don B
