I only use ME code 83 track my 1st layout. It looks more realistic than Atlas. While more expensive, it's not hard to use with the turnouts. Put those turnouts in the mainline and #4s in the yards/sidings.
One place I HIGHLY suggest for ordering the track is hobbylinc.com. They don't charge extra shipping for the track and sell it at great prices. They offer great customer service and are very reliable.
Cheers,
Lee
