I'm setting up a train under the Christmas tree for the grandkids and would like a slightly larger diameter than the B'mann 4'. Is there some other sectional track available, say 5' or 6' diameter that doesn't require a home equity loan to purchase? I'm using plain old DC to the rails.
Thanks,
Walt
The only thing I know of is Aristo 5ft and 6.5 ft. I have a box of both that I use for that purpose.

The head is gray, hands don't work , back is weak, legs give out, eyes are gone, money go's and my wife still love's Me.
Maybe check ebay for some (like Dave said) Aristocraft 5' or 6.5' dia. curves.
5' & 6.5' dia. are kind of seemingly strange diameters of curves. I think the most common are 4', 8', and 20' dia. sectional track. This would make finding low price, used track (in the needed diameter a little harder. Here are some I found: http://cgi.ebay.com/Aristo-Craft-Curved-Track-5-5-2-8-/110617923980?pt=Model_RR_Trains&hash=item19c157918c and http://cgi.ebay.com/G-GAUGE-BRASS-CURVED-TRACK-ARISTOCRAFT-12-PCS-BOX-/250734556925?pt=Model_RR_Trains&hash=item3a60f1b6fd (I think).
Lionel had some 5ft good for what you need try Evelbay
Thanks Guys - thanks for the input - I found some 5' stuff on ebay and have a bid in - we'll see what happens. Just hope some nit-nat doesn't come along and bid it up beyond what it can be bought for at the on-line retailers, happens all the time.
