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
