Speaking of Tie Strips...
I finally got a small piece of this Miller Tie Strip and have had time to
review it. Having been in S for only a few years, I had never seen any
before. My thoughts... not bad at all for something of that age! Not
great by any means, but not bad. I took the code 100 rail from a piece of
Atlas HO snap-track and slid them into the strip and the gauge came out
almost right, but just a little on the tight side. That, and the fact that
the "spikes" are GODZILLA sized are the only real problems I could find
with it... oh, and the lack of detail on the ties. The perfect spacing and
arrangement of the ties could be an issue for some, but that can be
overcome by using the strip primarily on well-maintained mainlines.
Now, I have a question... would such a product do well today? If someone
were to offer tie strip today... a tie strip that is far superior to the
Miller strip, would there be a market for it?
