O-27 track: thumbs up or down?

Published: April 20, 2007
Q: Before I was born, my grandfather bought me a Lionel O-27 set, and over the years I've acquired many other O-27 items. I want to build a layout, but just about everyone I've spoken to has advised me against building my layout using O-27 track and switches. Instead, they advise me to upgrade to either Lionel or Gargraves track with Ross or Curtis switches. Most tell me that shortly after building the layout with O-27 track or switches, I will want to tear it all up, and upgrade to one of the other track types. What would you suggest for a new layout?
