Z scale track.....MT and Rokuhan

So, looking at doing something with the small collection of Z scale I have. I use MT track, but the plan I am thinking about requires curved switches, Rokuhan has them. are the 2 manufactures compatable, as in, do they use the same code rail, and/or the same little roadbed jointers......

I think you can connect them without any problems. As you know both have a roadbed, the total height of the Rokuhan track is higher than the MTL track.

Wow that road bed... is it made is Styrofoam?
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

There is an interesting video about the flex track:
