<p>[quote user="BRAKIE"]Let's start with my beef. Track is a model too and why does it still look like brass track from the 50s? Even C83 is clunky and toyish looking.[/quote]</p> <p>Atlas code 100 flex ties are out of scale (too wide). Which is why I'm re-laying it on wood ties.</p> <p>Depends on what you model. </p> <p>PRR main line, and you need code 92 (ish). Modern mainlines, code 83 works just fine. </p> <p><a href="http://wpporter.worthygems.com/railweight.php">http://wpporter.worthygems.com/railweight.php</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
