Atlas
O
This US based firm may be of interest to the 16mm
fraternity as a source of sectionalised 32mm track. The track is intended for three rail
electric running and is of extremely high quality. Sleepers are made of a UV resistant
wood-grained engineering plastic and are sturdy and certified for outdoor use. The rail is
heavy section nickel silver, and the centre rail is blackened (tho' it may not be
too difficult to remove) The curved sections are 12 to circle, and come in several
different radiuses. There are points, also with at least two different frog angles,
crossings and straight track of different lengths.
