Dave, Yes I have. I used it extensively when I was building my last layout. When you hold it just right it worked great. The real problem was that it was designed to spike HO track so you have to turn it slightly for the outrigger wings to lay flat. If and when I start to build again I may modify and extend the "wings" slightly so it will stay vertical and in line. I also have the Code 70/83 adapter as I was using Code 83 in yards and sidings.
That said the late Lorrell Joiner built the O scale Great Southern with a Kadee spiker and he seemed to make it work just fine and he used Code 125 rail.
