I cannot understand why companies like mth would make a lame looking track. I can walk to any train track and get measurements needed to make a correct scale track. Atlas is simply the best-it is a no brainer-looks perfect, except of course for the lame 3rd rail, which they should phase out anyway.
I agree. There is no excuse for MTH not being able to get the tie spacings correct.
And yes, I have written to all companies about offering 2 rail hi-rail track, but no response so far. Doesn't make sense, since it looks great, and you can still run MTH Premier engines on it. Conversion kits could be developed. Why does every other scale have 2 rails (in a reasonable radius) except this one? See my other video showing an MTH running on 2 rails.
Nice job thanks for sharing.

Thanks. Atlas O did a nice job with their product. It gets a slight edge over ScaleTrax because of the selection of curves and switches available.
