AOTW is a couple of track pieces that I bought on ebay for my new side tracks. Also bought 15 Atlas flex pieces to complete those sidings.

I am currious, why you are using both flex track and snap track for the same project?

I use them both for convenience. It's all Atlas nickel silver code 100 as is all of my track except the Shinohara double crossover. Oddly enough, I bought the flex track to use on the long straight sections. I'm not a big fan of cutting and trimming flex tracks for curves, although I have any tools it takes to do so easily.

On the 20 foot straights , I use a few flex tracks, a turn out switch or two and the smaller snap pieces, and I'm done.
