Regarding differences in traction, I have not seen much difference between steel and aluminum rail with cast iron wheels. Both get very slippery with oil and water on the track. Steel tried wheels give better traction than cast iron on either material.

Re: Quick question for the 3/4 Scale guys.
The NJLS has both steel and aluminum on the high line. Both work great until the guy with the lubrimotive goes for a spin then the whole idea of doing any running will quickly STB.
