Title: track compatibility
Post by: railroadsales on March 15, 2010, 04:23:58 PM
will Bachmann large scale (g) work with other brands of track?  Will the rail joiners mate with lgb, aristocraft and others?

RRsales, simple answer, NO. Bachmann track won't mate without a great deal mods. It's also meant for indoor use only, where as the others are outdoor track

Dear RRS,

Bachmann (indoor) G track will mate with other brands of solid track if you remove the black blade from its end, and provide a means to hold the different track sections together, such as 2 rubber bands or a tie wrap around the end ties.

A little bit of work, but definitely doable. 

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
