<P>My views on LGB versus Aristo track is well known, i am an LGB fan but i reckon Aristo rails are better, as they have a better alloy using more zinc and less copper, making them harder and oxidise less. They lose a bit on conductivity though, but such small amount its not worth considering.</P> <P>However there it ends, I have had trouble with Aristy joiners filling up with dirt and losing conductivity and they are hard to solder. I just got rid of them, replaced with LGB joiner and soldered the whole thing, no more trouble.</P> <P>The bit about winter makiing the sleepers brittle is a point that i cannot comment on as where i live their is no winter.</P> <P>I actually use our club track here in Australia and it is ideal for me, being more like Aristo with LGB joiners, comes in 3.69 m or 12 ' lengths and i bend it to suit what I am doing and it's just the best.</P> <P>regards Ian </P>
