I'm still in the planing stage, but getting close to pulling the trigger on track and switches. What are your thoughts of going with Peco code 100 switches and Atlas code 100 flex track? I figure I'll need 3 cases of 100 pieces of track and at least 60-70 switches, if I go with the above combination, I'll save $1000, which could be put towards other things.
I was going with Peco code 83 and atlas track, but joining the 2 is a bit of a PIA, I don't really want to use Atlas switches, because of having to mount a ground throw or use a switch machine.
Once code 100 is ballasted and painted, the difference is slight, as far as I can see, and if I can save a grand, why not?
I want to get the bench work up, lay the roadbed and track and get some trains running!
