I have fairly extensive experience with brass (both outdoors and indoors), and more limited experience with both stainless steel and aluminum rails.  I never had any major problems with brass, aside from keeping it clean, but my next outdoor layout will use stainless steel exclusively.  I simply like the look of it, and given my status as an "oldster," I like the fact that it requires a bit less attention in terms of cleaning. I've also tried aluminum track (Hartland, with the built-in roadbed), but would not recommend it for outdoor use for a variety of reasons.  I use the Hartland track in my indoor LS display cases, and on smaller indoor layouts. There's sure nothing wrong with brass--it has been used on garden railways for years--but my personal preference these days is definitely with stainless steel.
