    Need a lesson on Radius

    Thanks Andrew! I am replacing the Power Loc for a few reasons --it's loud, the fit between pieces isn't that snug and causes additional clacking / occassional derails, the electrical connections short out at times, a few of the clips have broken over time. Plus it's black and I would prefer...

    Need a lesson on Radius

    I may be parsing words with you here Andrew but I am not looking for something to fit INSIDE the 36 diameter. I need something that fits 36 EXACTLY. So I am thinking the EZ Track 18 would do the trick?

    Need a lesson on Radius

    Thanks guys, but I am a little confused. EzTrack comes in both 15 and 18 degree curves. Which one do I need to ensure I can fit in onto the inclines/risers that are already installed and (due to scenery, etc.) cannot be moved. The current circle of track (Power Loc) is 36" apart...

    Should I Use Track Bed?

    Hello All, New to the forum, and model railroading -- thanks to my "train-crazy" 5-year old. We (more like I) built a pretty cool landscaped layout, which I was surprised to find I really enjoyed. Here's my problem. I used Power-loc track. Now that the layout is (almost) completed, I've...
