The Standard gauge track features tinplated steel rails, heavy gauge steel ties, nickel-plated steel track pins, and fiber insulators. Track offered includes full and half-straights and curves and a variety of options for the number of ties on your track. Half-straights (2, 3 or 5 ties), full straights (4, 6, or 11 ties), 36-inch straights (7, 13, or 25 ties). Half-curves with 42-inch-diameter (3 or 5 ties), full curves with 42-inch-diameter (5, 9, or 13 ties), full curves with 57-inch-diameter (5 or 9 ties), full curves with 72-inch-diameter (6 or 11 ties), full curves with 84-inch-diameter (7 or 13 ties), and full curves with 87-inch-diameter (7 or 13 ties).

TRACK FOR TINPLATE
Posted by Jim Hornaday on Monday, January 15, 2018 11:48 AM

Hello all!

So, after quite a lot of thinking, I have decided to go back to my roots and build an O gauge layout! Long story short, I have become enamoured with the MTH reproductions of classic Lionel Standard & O gauge trains. My question is; what track should I use for the Standard gauge? Menards sell the old tubular 3 rail/black tie track and I was looking at that.

Thanks for the help!!
