Both are commercially available as flex track and switches -- code 100 from multiple sources, code 83 from Tomalco. In addition, BK Enterprises and Fasttracks sell kits and jigs to lay your own from scratch. Scale wheel sets are needed to handle both 100 and 83 track. SHS is very good about offering that choice on all their equipment. Welcome to S scale!
