Any of them, C TRACK or M TRACK in HO <br /> <br />1st, could you make them compatable with basic Atlas tracks (With some mods of course) <br /> <br />2nd. Are they any good? as far as relibility. (Going through them on mailine speed) <br /> <br />The reason I ask is because I'm kind of fed up with Peco curved turnout as you "most of the time" have to elevate the outside of track for non-derailments, and the smaller radius is a little tight. You can't go through these at mainline speed. <br /> I'm also kind of fed up with Shinohara turnouts as the throwbars don't stay snugged to the rail like Peco turnouts. I use cork roadbed on my layout and occured these problems many times. Just with my curved turnouts. So I got to thinking, What about Marklin? They turnouts comes pre roadbed based and with motor mounted underneath. Looks like it would be nice & smooth. <br /> What I would like to know is, will there be a problem with current flow from basic atlas track to the Marklin track. Also, what are your experiances with TRU-SCALE turnouts with the wooden roadbed. Looks more detailed to me all around. Note: I saw the other post that may related to this topic.
