Hi M. Horovitz, I would like the address of a supplier of Sunset Valley code-250 brass rail. I am in the same position as Kevin - lots of space for laying track, but would need to buy about $2000 worth of ready made to install my projected layout, plus overseas shipping costs. Possibly self built track would be less costly and shipping coils of brass rail (is it supplied in coils?) would also prove less costly than pre-built, to my Central American location. Prefabricating sleepers would be no problem, but spikes would be useful! Alan E. [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by m.horovitz Hi Kevin, I make my own track. I cut the ties out of redwood and use Sunset Valley code-250 brass rail spiked down with Micro-Engineering spikes. My track is dual gauge (0 and 1), which makes building the switches kind of hairy, but it can be done. My railway has about 150' of mainline and eight switches, each designed and built for the space it occupies -- no two alike. I wrote 4-part series on my trackbuilding methods that started in the December 1996 issue of GARDEN RAILWAYS. I believe the back issues are still available from Kalmbach. [/quote]
