[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Stargrazer Back in about 1980, when I built my first big layout, MRR and RMC had both printed articles stating that code 70 is the closest thing to prototypical track.<center>SNIPS</center>However the fact still remains that all the trade mags are calling code 83 track the closest to prototypical [/quote] At no time has code 100 been commonly prototypical. In 1980, code 70 was the closest size track that was easily obtained. Since 1980 several lines of code 83 have come onto the market. It's simply evolution of products, no great conspiracy.
