Hi all,
How does Lionel Super O track compare dimensionally to Fastrack?
I am planning a layout based on a Lionel Display that used Super O.

Super O only came stock in O-36 but some folks have devised ways to modify it. Fastrack would replace it radius and lengthwise but Fastrack base is 3.375" wide. Depending on the display and accessories the extra width may cause some issues.
But overall it should work out.

OGR had a feature on exactly this about 6 months ago or so. They detailed building a Fastrack layout from a previously Super O layout. If you are going from a Super O layout to Fastrack it is a must to read.

Very best, Mike
