That is one thing special that GMM does. Make specific pieces of railing. MOst of the others give you large pieces to cut to your needs (GMM has some of these too). So if you want to limit the tme you spend measuring before you cut then GMM is worth the price. In any case, all three of the big boys make excellent sets and you can't lose no matter which way you go. All three have different prices and more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better.

Gator,
Thanks for the heads up. I really like GMM, the instructions that come with there PE are really first rate. I got the Arizona(1/426) PE set and its great. Just wish it came with more railing because I think I'll run out before I'm done (I'm putting in more railing than the GMM set calls for).
