Fixing to begin construction of 15x38’ layout. Building a building behind my house for layout. Have 8x16’ layout up stairs in my house using Fastrack. I just love the Command Control 0-72 switches. Have talked to three different professional layout builders and all three say don’t use Fastrack. They say it is too expensive, not prototypical and problems with connectivity. They all say Gargraves track and Ross Switches.
I can do the Gargraves track and Ross switches but wiring all those switches and being limited to a stationary control panel just diesn’t appeal to me.
I have never seen a big layout done with Fastrack. Are there some out there? What do you guys say? I don’t mind ballasting the sides of the Fastrack.
Just want to do this right the first time and not be sorry with the track system. I am spending a lot of money on this with the building and all so a little more for the right track system will be justified.
Your opinions will be greatly appreciated!
