Atlas O Premium Nickel Silver 21st Century Track® System is the most realistic and versatile system of track components ever offered to the 2-Rail market. The scale-sized plastic brown track ties have a wood grain, the tie-plates have spikes, and the rail joiners have the bolt detail of real track. To add to the realism, the center rail is blackened. And don’t think for a second that because it looks so good you may have to settle for less in the area of performance. The ease of installation and reliability the system provides will impress you. We use solid nickel silver T-rail for extra stability, superior electrical conductivity, and of course, realism. The flat surface of the rails provides a far greater wheel/rail contact ratio when compared to the curved profile of tubular track, and thus, better traction. What’s more, solid rails absorb sound better than hollow tubular rails. Independent testing has shown Atlas O 21st Century Track® to be the quietest on the market. The way in which track connects and is powered is key to a reliable layout, and we’ve given both of these elements a lot of thought. Each track piece features a “snap-lock” system that allows you to join track quickly and easily, and provides a secure connection. Our detailed terminal joiners (rail joiners with a wire soldered to the underneath) allow you to connect your power source to the rails of the track at any point on the layout. Insulated joiners used on one outside rail will give you an insulated track section. Insulated track sections are the best way to power track side operating accessories.
