Track Selection

James would like to hear from anyone who can offer suggestions on track selection:

“I am a novice train collector building an O gauge layout and am looking for recommendations on what track to use since there are so many different types and styles out there … ex. MTH, Atlas, Lionel, etc”

Given that O gauge requires lots of room and care regarding curve radii, I’ve found Gargraves track gives a good look, is relatively easy to bend and shape, and now has lots of switch/turnout and crossover options. I’ve been able to combine it with old Lionel switches too. Good luck.
