Hello there,
I'm pretty sure this topic has popped up before, but here goes:
I want to get new switches for my layout, as of now the plan was to get #6 switches.
However, since I plan to get an Athearn SD40E (due next year) for my layout, I'm now wondering if I should go ahead think a little ahead and get #8 switches instead. Is this a good idea? Or sticking with #6 is good enough?
Also, which brand should I go with? Atlas or Peco?
And if it is Peco, should I go with insulfrog or electrofrog?
BTW my layout is code 83.
Opinions are welcomed,
Thanks in advance,
DE
