I know K-Line makes 072 tubular track at 027 height. How about switches. I was looking in their catalog and it features snap track mainly. They are a hop, skip and jump from me [Chapel Hill]. Got an email contact there. Wanted to know if any of you have used them and what other brands are available????? Thanks

The only K-Line switches that I have are O-gauge 42".

GarGraves track and switches are O-27 height, as are Ross and Curtis switches. You would need mating pins to connect these items to O-27 track.

We have been using Gargraves 072 Switches with 027 adapter pins quite successfully. It looks a little strange, but the rail height is pretty close and the switches work pretty will with the Z1000 switch machines.
