What manufacturer choices do I have for n scale code 80? I'm also trying to figure out where I can pick up #4 and #5 remote dcc friendly code 80 turnouts as well. Also, I'm looking at track only, no uni-track Those I know of: Atlas, #6 remote turnouts Peco, #4 turnouts I know Kato and Roco...

Hey, I've been posting for almost a month now, looking to do an n scale freestyle layout of a mix city/scenic scene in a 6 foot by 8 foot layout, which will be sectional.
