@RRDOC posted:Following the guidance of a couple of 3RS forum members, I constructed some 3 rail track from Atlas 2 rail flextrack and an N-scale or HO-scale recessed center rail. I used it on sidings and on a long trestle bridge. All was good until I ran some recent Lionel Heavyweight Passenger cars over it. Turns out that the center rail pickup couldn't reach the N-scale center rail (HO rail was ok). So you can go too low . . .
Fortunately my locomotives and all my K-line passenger cars had no trouble.

Bob please confirm that K-Line Aluminum and Heavyweight Passenger Cars run on Code 145 without problems. If so then my need for a "new" track becomes a moot point for me. You have my solution. Thank you very much!
