<<<It would be interesting to see how many of the typical AF operators have switched to SHS track in the past or with the Lionel offerings will change in the near future.>>>
I can tell you that from a sales viewpoint, S-Trax has been my best seller, by far, since it was introduced. At that time, my sales of original AF, "new" AF, Am Models, and Am S-Gauge track all diminished significantly. In 2nd place, but not even close to SHS, has been Am Models Flextrack. I believe the biggest thing that drives AF folks away from original track is not the appearance......it's having to constantly clean it. So far, I have not seen "major" sales of the FasTrack, although I've had a number of inquiries about mating it with S-Trax. But I think the FasTrack will begin to take off once turnouts are released.
