Dear Bob,
   My layout was started before Tomalco code 100 flex track or  
Shinahara switches.  I wanted to model a branchline so I was not as  
tied to code 100 rail.  I followed the lead of Jerry Viemeister and  
started with code 70 NS rail.  Jerry's theory was smaller rail made  
the trains stand out just a bit more.  It cost less per foot to lay  
and was much easier to file than code 100 for switches.  On one siding  
I now have code 55.  I used the small Railcraft spikes every 4th tie.   
Now when I look at my track work some 30 years later, I wonder how my  
eyes allowed me to do such fine work.
Don
