HI JUST WONDERING IF YOU CAN CUT A PIECE OF STRAIGHT ALTAS TRACK FROM 10 IN TO THE SIZE OF TRACK YOU NEED AND WHAT DO YOU CUT IT WITH. TONY

I use a Dremel tool with a cut off blade to cut my Atlas track. You can also use a fine tooth hacksaw. Just be careful to stabilize the track you are cutting so the rail doesn't separate from the plastic ties.

Because Atlas makes so many different small sections of track, I'm surprised you would need to cut a section down. I have only done that once, when none of the small stock sections worked and I only needed a 1" section to fill a gap.

Simple answer is ....YES!

I second the dremel suggestion. It works great.

I have used a dremel and also hack saw. They both work well.

I'll suggest another method that works extremely well and is quick and accurate. I use a compound miter saw with a metal blade. The nicest part is you can cut on an angle if you need too.

It may seem like overkill, but I get extremely accurate cuts.
