I think we hit this area enough. Every other post on this forum is tubular this tubular that..and the same for FasTrack.

I think the issue is dead already guys.

Use what you want. I think most people (including myself) are getting burned out of this already.

MOVE ON

Usualy if someone is tired of a thread, they just move on to another thread. Maybe YOU should move on.

I still have some however I don't use it on the layout. I do like it around the Christmas tree. I gave most of it to my brother whojust loves the stuff.

Grayson I forgot to ask since your from Georgia. Are you any relationship to Grayson Manor that was formed in Grayson, Ga? That is some old rock & roll music.

Thanks for the defence John, and Chuck. This is not a survey or poll or advantages or disadvantages, its just a thread were you can say your proud to be using tubular track. We are talking about trains on this forum, and track is a major part of that. It seems like Ls1Heli wants to move away from track, well sadly, TRAINS MOVE on track, so what track you use is important.

 

Renovo PPR (I belive your name is John Whistling [:-^] ), I dont have any connection but I wish I did... you have Grayson Stadium in Savannah, were the Savannah Sand Gnats play, and then you have the town of Grayson. Couldent I have been named something else...... Wink [;)] I like my name, its rare so you would know who I am even if you hadent heard of me in a long time, its a one of a kind name. Big Smile [:D]

I don't recall anyone "bashing" tubular track, on this, or the other forum. FasTrack, on the other hand, has gotten its share. I don't understand what "proud" has to do with it, unless it relates to, say, taking a ton of Super O track and restoring it. Joe

 I like Tubular myself as it has a classic look & feel to it & if I had a layout set up it most likely would have Tubular on it as well. Take Care.
