I am considering converting my 031 Tubular Track layout to Fastrack 036 (to accommodate modern Engines). However, I want to confirm I can manipulate, if needed, the pin out on Fastrack.
A specific example is what one may call an "S" configuration. As such, I have an 031 curved section of Tubular track turning "left" and immediately connected to an O31 section turning "right". This typically "messes with" the pin out on one end of the curved sections. With Tubular Track this is easily accommodated by removing or adding pins on one of the curved sections. Summary question - can a Fastrack section accommodate this configuration/modification?
Another "experience" related question is - fabrication of a Fastrack "Fitter" section or simply purchase smaller Fastrack sections to equal a "Fitter"? In the 036 Fastrack layout design using the "SCARM" tool I require 3 each 1 3/8 Fastrack sections connected together to fill "the gap". Summary question - is purchase of the 1 3/8 Fastrack sections the least invasive and time consuming approach versus attempting to create a fitter section of Fastrack? (With tubular track I simply needed a miter box and hacksaw.)
Thanks for you comments and suggestions.
