Any credence to the rumors about flex track with North American tie spacing?

Just in case it's true, I also heard Peco would be making it and in c55

Bury 1/4 of the rail into the ties like they did in N scale. So you have only .040" showing above the ties.

I can confirm AZL is in talks with Peco. No official announcements were made during the NTS. Sorry I don't have a further details.
