Is anybody using the Model Power flex track? Is the rail the same size as Atlas? I do know rail size can differ from brand to brand.
Second, has any body dealt with this hobby shop? Good or bad experience?

Loren,
I don't know about Model Power flex track, I've generally bought whatever was at my local hobby shop without paying attention to the brand. The rail sizes will be the same regardless of brand. Code 100 will be code 100, the differences are in the thickness of the tie strips the rail is mounted to. If you get flex from a manufacturer that has thicker tie strips than whatever other product you are using, you can either shim the thinner tie strips up with styrene or sand down the bottom of the tie strip to make it equal to the thinner stuff.
