I model in O-Scale 2-Rail and am using Atlas and ME Rail .148. The Atlas rail joiners and rail insulators are too toy like and they don't make tie plates. Right-O'-Way is certainly quality but they won't be back in business for a few months now.
Are there any quality alternatives for those who hand lay track and switches? I have used the R-O-W ties but will be forced to buy from Northeastern. While I have never purchased their ties before, their scribed siding and other accessory profiles are top quality. Their prices appear to be much better as well. Kappler doesn't sell a 9' (2.25") tie, only the 8.5" ones which won't match ME and Atlas Flextrack in size.
Thanks...
