It is made by Bachmann. You can get it from most hobby stores. If you want to buy it online I would recomend Caboose Hobbies. http://www.caboosehobbies.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?scales_name=HO+Scale&roadnames_name=&categories_id=156&inc_subcat=1&manufacturers_id=85&keyword2=&sku=&osCsid=f51206be181f85edd5bc72df26a972b9&maxrow=50&x=24&y=7

Before you go buying replacement track, may I ask why you need replacement track?  That set is several years old, but unless you had some major curse thrown by a surviving Death Eater, the track probably only needs cleaning.  My set came with the Bachmann EZ-Track, which is available almost anywhere.

Wow, my screen just went wall to wall. I never understood why some sites have such long URLs to their products. This one sets a new record. Frisco, do you have a 48 inch monitor?

Nickster, it's confusing when you post the same question on two boards.

To my knowledge the track required by the Hogwarts Express is regular Bachmann EZ-Track. If you are replacing this track do yourself a favor and get the nickel-silver EZ-Track. It doesn't require cleaning so often and the train will continue running even when the track is a bit dirty.
