What is the best way to join Peco turnouts (code 80) to Atlas flextrack (code 80)? The Peco turnouts have a small slot in the ties for the connector, but it is too tight for the Atlas connectors. Should I use Peco connectors (I heard they dont fit well with Atlas track) or try to remove the last ties on the turnout and place them under the connection afterwards?
I remove the “slotted” tie and use an Atlas rail joiner. To fill the gap, I slip a tie with the “spike heads” removed under the rail.
