Who makes the best S guage track?

Dr. John,

I second your thoughts on Pike Master track! It is too narrow in the curve to run my 4-6-2 A.F. 295, and 283 locomotives on.

I have one S-Helper switch with my S gauge track and had to use adapter pins sold separetly and had to cut off the end piece to mate with S gauge track or GarGraves track.

I got my first S gauge train back in the 60's from friends of my parents, my parents bought me a race car set and their friends threw in the A.F. train set: loco # 295 and freight cars # 923 CNJ cement car, # 924 I.C. box car, # 925 Gulf tank car, # 941 Frisco gondola, # 938 caboose, and some track and two manual AF switches, one right one left. 

Have added to the AF set since then and have four steam locomotives and five cabooses and several freight cars.  Run the AF on a two track main on my layout inside my O gauge trains.
