A question for MTA or anyone with Accucraft track

Post by grumpfuttock » Sat Jul 05, 2008 12:00 am

Si, I have heard that you may have got some Accucraft track.
If possible, I would like to hear your impression of it.

I am thinking of getting some Accucraft narrow gauge 45mm track with code 250 brass rail. I am told that the code 250 track has a different profile to Peco code 250 rail. How much of a problem does the difference in profiles cause when trying to join Peco code 250 and Accucraft code 250 rail ?

Due to the fact that Accucraft do not have any turnouts available, any Accucraft code 250 track purchased will have to be attached to Peco turnouts. So I am wondering how feasible this is.
