Paul, <br /> <br />Thanks for the tip. I built a test track with turnouts using the new Atlas Code 55 and was very excited about its more prototypical look and price differential against PECO. The most recent Atlas and Kata locos ran smooth as silk, but comparitively recent LL and Rapido (S-2's) had lots of problems. My old Rapido/REVELL FA's and Geeps don't even touch the rails. This ia a shame because with shims and the right lubricants I have dialed them in to run as smooth as anything KATO has built. Moreover, I think I could smother the track in peanut butter and they would plow right through it. <br /> <br />Terry <br />
