Topic: Dave Smith's New Routed Track!

I spent a day with Dave Smith last week. It is always fun catching up with Dave and seeing his newest stuff! On this trip I got to check out his newest HO track build. The course is a replica of the original Aurora Tub Track layout. Dave built this track using his wire rail system. But unlike his previous track builds, he used copper non-magnetic wire instead of steel wire. What he ended up with is a super smooth track with absolutely no benefit of magnetic traction. Running cars on this track is an absolute blast!

I appologize for not getting a more recent photo of Dave's track. This is a photo I had during the construction before it was finished.

Thanks to Dave for the updated photo!
