Title: elevated piers
Post by: tigerthelion on January 29, 2015, 06:01:34 AM
Howdy!

Just wondering if anyone has tried using the Atlas brand elevated pier set with Bachmann's ez track? What is the grade percentage? Thanks!

The Atlas piers aren't really designed to be used with roadbed type tracks, even their own TruTrack. The clips on top are designed to hold the ties regular sectional track. You might be able to do some sort of modification, maybe glueing them to the underside of EZ-Track roadbed, but you'll be better off using the piers designed for EZ-Track.

the atlas pier set comes in 1/4" increments, which gives a grade of about 3%
