Hello,
I'm looking at creating an outdoor 3 rail layout here in the uk, moving away from the fasttrack lionel that i've used indoors until now. I've been looking at gargraves ss track or Atlas track as possible options. Which is best ? Will expect to have to import it to, as there are not many outlets for such here in the uk.
Regards Jason

I don't know why, but I went for fasttrack a few years ago for indoor use, should have gone for atlas. May have to have an ebay sale to fund the new layout.
This idea has been in the back of my mid as well here's some video's that someone down in California has done. http://www.youtube.com/user/SYVRRy Hope it helps out!
The video referenced above is at a good friends home here in CA. He uses all Atlas nickle track and Atlas switches and hasn't had any significant problems. He goes through a thorough cleaning process before runs. Most of the track has been in use for about 10 years. Temps in the area can reach 90-100 in the summer and 20's in winter.
Well, the Atlas track says it's UV resistant, and the solid nickel-silver rails shouldn't be a problem. That looks like the choice to me.
