Donald: I agree with Justin, go with the flex or handlaid track, you can also use some predone fixed radius curve track with it. The first thing is that the EZ track would cost you too much, fine if you are only doing lets say a 2x4 or 2x6 module, or something very small just to practice on. If you want to build anything larger, the cost would be too much, save your monies for some nice other railroad things. As Justin said, you would be also limited, with flex track you can follow a plan or design your own and easily make changes as you go, to which you will do. A lot of the fun of this hobby is the creativity and building that you do, you see your railroad grow piece by piece, you get a lot of enjoyment in small things that you accomplish also, this could also include trackwork(dsigning it, putting it down, painting and weathering it, balasting, and all the extra details). Remember, all thoses layouts that you have seen, and will see in the future, and go "wow" over, all their builders were all beginers once too. Building a model railroad does not happen overnight, it takes time and patience, so go slow and enjoy !!! <br />Ron McIntosh, Abbotsford, B.C. Canada.
