Building your own track is not a lot of WORK but it is time consuming, I enjoy this part of the hobby. My track is built on SPLINE roadbed made of "TREX" ( www.trex.com ) I also cut my ties out of redwood boards and use Old Pullman code-197 nickel silver rail and Old Pullman stainless steel spikes plus Old Pullman stainless steel rail joiners. My spline roadbed has enough flex so that expansion and contraction are NEVER a problem and temperature extremes in Minnesota can go as high as +110 to a low of -35 degrees. All my track and turnouts have been built INPLACE so weather has been a consideration whenever I want to add more track. <br /> <br />May All Your Weeds Be Wild Flowers... OLD DAD
