American Flyer Fastrack Compatibility with American Models and S Helper Service
Posted by Hud464 on Saturday, November 19, 2022 9:20 PM

Are there any running issues that anyone has observed when operating American Models,and S Helper Service through AF Fastrack switches?   I wanted to find out prior to investing in other brands than Lionel.   Thanks!

I recently moved from Lionel O Legacy to American Flyer S due to space considerations.

There should be no issues running AM, SHS or MTH cars or engines on FasTrack. Even equipment from those three suppliers with scale wheels will work.

Take a look at Chuck Kemper's youtube videos. His home layout (not the Museum modular layout) is all FasTrack.

Thank you for your reply.   This opens up a lot more options.
