Iain Rice of " Roque Bluffs " has published a book titled " PCB Track Construction " ( Hawshill Press ) which is available from Dave Cleal Mainly Trains ( www.mainlytrains.com ) in the UK who has Credit card facilities and provides a good service. ( My only connection is as a happy customer ! ) where Iain explains how he builds soldered PCB based track of various prototypes and gauges, including multi-gauge track. Anyone contemplating soldered track should read this book. <br /> <br />The other avenue for prototype track is the USRA / AREA ( American Railroad Engineering Association ) which should be able to direct you to original scources for US prototype track standards. These standards varied between companies and over the years, Additionally some US roads favoured particular layouts and track formations which like signalling can indicate the railway you are viewing without a train or rolling stock being present. <br /> <br />Regards, sunstream2
