Title: Sectional Track Prototype
Post by: Len on April 16, 2019, 08:58:15 AM
Sectional track seen west end of UP's W. Colton yard. There's no roadbed attached, so do you suppose it's Atlas, Peco, or Micro-Engineering??

Can I get my EM1 through those switches? 😂😂😂

Wow, that looks like a model that has been plastered, before the ground foam and static grass.  And, I think an EM-1 would make it through all of those switches - if they were connected to some track!

Let's see how long it takes for someone to ID the black track sections just before the switches.

What a "retarded" comment  ;)

One, of many, interesting things about Colton yard is it has an operating transfer table, large enough for 3 tables. You can see it using Google Maps satellite view.

The switch stand areas aren't long enough for Atlas, and it looks more like Peco.
