In LS 'flex' track is the 1.5m (or 6ft) lengths. You can't actually pick it up and bend it easily like you can flex track in smaller scales. You will probably need a rail bender, (or remove the rails and carefully hand bend each one, then put them back into the ties/sleepers), but that’s as close as you will get to flex track. Peco in the UK claim that they have a true flex track for 45mm gauge, but it uses smaller rail (code 250 or 200) and it is in shorter lenghts (914mm/ 1yd). I have never seen it, so couldn't comment on how easy it bends. Both LGB and Aristo sell the 1.5m lengths of standard code 332 rail, so you should be able to find out the cost comparisons on the internet or at a local train shop. Also several other companies in the US will sell you the rail only in long lengths (some up to 12ft) and then you can make the track yourself. As several people have already commented, there is less cost advantage building your own track in the US because you are closer to the suppliers and not paying the large freight charges that we do living 'down under'.
