What are the pros and cons of the scale flextrack that's available? 
Are there any brands other than Shinohara and Tomalco?

I have been very happy with the new Tomalco code 70.  

I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only NWSL finescale
wheels, but also Ace archbar wheels as well, would roll over it with
no problems.  The spikeheads are very low profile.  Since the tie
spacing is very close so as to be correct for a modern mainline, on my
1880s track I cut the connecting webs out of the tie strip and space
the ties out to reflect my prototype's wider tie spacing.  

I've even been able to slide out the code 70 rail and replace it with
code 55 on a few lengths, cementing the rail in place with ACC, to
create some sidings with smaller rail than the mainline.
