Hello Peter,

You are correct, the latest human assembly has not been fully populated with 
all of the tracks available in the prior assembly (nothing has been deleted, 
the tracks still exist in the prior assemblY). Over time, some of these will be 
moved to the new assembly and some will not. The idea of creating a Custom 
track is a good one. Extract the data from the prior assembly, use liftOver to 
convert the coordinates to the new assembly, and load in the new assembly.
