Atlas code 55....

I am putting together my first layout in 35 years and using Atlas code 55. So far I am very happy with the track, the only rough spot is a poorly soldered connection that causes the cars to rock badly. Some work with a file will cure that. The switches have powered frogs. As soon as I figure out the Caboose hand throws I will have an idea of how well they work. I know the cars roll through them smoothly. The cost, at least at my LHS is 2/3 that of PECO ($2.05 for a section of Atlas code 55 flextrack compaired to $3.15 for a section of Peco flex) <br /> <br />I would like to see a better selection in track, more crossovers and maybe a wye would be nice. <br /> <br />Overall I like the stuff.
