Of course HO comes first, it's their bread and butter. The N scale will come as I'm sure it's a non-trivial amount of sales. I just hope they fix the tapering in the tie strips - the 36" long flex uses 3 12" tie strips and a lot of what I've bought in the last 5 years has a noticeable taper from one end to the other on each strip which shows up in a patter on the full piece. Sanding them lightly tends to fix it, but not having it at all would be nice.
I’m not sure if the ME code 55 flex or older Railcraft stock has these same issues or not. This is all on the most recent production ME c40. If you watch the YouTube video of their track being made, you can see the worker pull the piece out of the machine and flip it around halfway through the process.
You're correct. All the tooling is 9" segments. Here's what it looks like: (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link)
I wish ME would increase its N scale turnout selection, and add some crossovers - become competitive with Atlas's product line.
I am in dire need of an ME 80 foot deck girder bridge kit. Let me know when Mainline gets them in stock and I will order from them.Mike
