Track gang and scrap yard accessories

Anyone have them and what do you think of them?

If you are refering to the Lionel FASTRACK accessories, I’ve seen them on several layouts (not my own, I use K-Line track) and they are neat. I would encourage placing the track gang accessory on a spur to the layout edge, and use a momentary push button to activate same… I have noticed that this accesory will “wear-out” some if left continuously on. The scrap yard accesory I don’t quite get. We have a scapyard on the west side of town, and I’ve never seen them dismantle anything on a siding.

All in all, I like Lionel’s new track a lot. It has a great profile, and they have provided a lot of expansion pieces. What I don’t like about it — too ridged. Tubular or Gargraves gives you that extra “wiggle” room if things down line up jesssst right.
