Very nice indeed.

You know, the funny thing about the whole "3 rail vs. 2 rail", is that once it's down and ballasted, 3 rail really doesn't look all that different (or bad) from  2 rail. In my opinion, it's the lack of ties on traditional track that makes it look toy-like.

I say this because, as I mentioned in my post about train noise, I have Fastrack down next to American Flyer 2-rail; the Fastrack looks much better. In fact, when I first got it, I was struck by how realistic the Fastrack looked; I guess I was "expecting" it to appear more like what we grew up with. The fact that it works so well is just an added bonus.

FWIW, I experienced the voltage drop with the Fastrack I'd been reading about while running on AC: once I switched over to DC, I'm not getting that anymore...
