Howdy all,
I'm currently working on a store front Christmas display and will be fundamentally done by Labor Day. It is a simple oval loop. I've only been in the world's greatest hobby for less than two years and am eager to get going with command and control, multiple engines running at the same time, and multiple levels. So, among other things, I've started my first attempt at track design software. Went with SCARM and purchased the license. I found an interesting layout for me to get my feet wet with switching and command and control. (file attached, hope that does not break any rules. Sorry if it does.) The file is built with Lionel O tubular. To date I've invested in Atlas. Not sure why, just like it. I'm thinking of switching to Ross and/or Gargraves because the switches seem very popular, and their products look really cool.
Question: is there a way to substitute in different track brands to an existing design or is it a one piece at a time effort? Alternatively, if I can confirm there are same size curves, switches, and other track in both brands as compared to the Lionel tubular design, can I just assume they will work? (yes, make fun of the word assume...).
Thanks in advance. OGR Rocks! - Bill
