SILKY SMOOTH TRACK AND SWITCH OPERATION

Thanks for the nice comments. I should have mentioned that I use the Atlas flex track everywhere. I love the stuff. Can get beautiful curves out of it. I also use Atlas Customline Switches, all # 6"s even on a small layout. I like the look of the long curves, although they take up more room than the #4's. and I think they operate better than the 4"s. Theres alot of pro"s and Con's about the Atlas switches but I have always used them and al;ways have had great luck with them. I guess I am just use to them. I do have 2 curved Peco switches on the layout and they work well also. (the long curved ones) I would guess they are # 6's as well, or about the same. <br /> <br />Most of the time the joints go together perfect but every once in a while, not sure why, one section, at the joint will be slightly higher than the other one. Theres are the ones I file down and sand. <br /> <br />DON
