You are correct about the cost between the EZ track and Atlas with cork, 6 of one, half dozen of the other. The question you ask yourself is; can I live with the limitation of the EZ track? By this I mean, your layout will be dictated by the available EZ track pieces. If you go the Atlas route, or any other track only manufacturer, you can modify the track to suit your layout desires. The 3' sections of flex track offer a ton of possibilities in layout design that you wouldn't be able to do with rigid EZ track. <br /> <br />Your two choices come down to flexibility in layout design vs. fast assembly and limited design. The cost should be about the same in the end. <br /> <br />And personally, I like the look of code 83 track over cork roadbed that has been ballasted, it looks realistic too!
