Some time ago, I'd created what I labeled at the time as "FR_Tracks" to help fill in the gaps where ScaleRail didn't have pieces, and to add some geometry commonly used shapes and lengths when doing 4M spaced routes.
Originally I'd called these FakeRail, as not give anyone the impression they were a product of 3DTrains. I'm rebranding that now as FastRail, since the real goal is to speed up route building by having a slightly bigger toolkit at the builder's disposal.
As Mtracks was to XTracks, these are meant to complement, not compete. I'm not intentionally replicating any pieces that come with ScaleRail, with one or two exceptions e.g. 03d turnouts that did not have guard rails or frogs in ScaleRail.

- More to come
This is not a final list, but instead is largely based on what I've needed for my rebuilds on the UP Gila Route and CNW Harvard.
Initially, these are only going to be available in W textures. Time and TSection slots permitting, I may add concrete versions at a later date.
I know there are still a few ScaleRail builders left. Feel free to suggest additional pieces that might help fill in more gaps for your projects.
I'm not adding to the file library just yet -- they depend on an updated TSection, which I'm hoping will be fully tested and validated "soon". 86 pieces won't happen overnight.
That said, I may post a testing version here, as I've done with the TSRE testing versions with the understanding that the user accepts the risks of using a pre-production copy.
