Layouts for Atlas O Gauge Track
The new Atlas O gauge track is finding wider appeal. It is different
from traditional tubular rail in several ways. One significant different
for layout designers is that unusual curve diameter. Traditional O
gauge uses a 31" curve, while Atlas is 26". Likewise, the next size
is 42" for traditional O and 45: for Atlas. This makes a difference!
Atlas track, though made for O, is constructed of solid rails and connected
by clip-type joiners similar to those used in G, HO and N. It features
plastic ties, and is considered to look "more realistic."
