Title: E-Z Track converter
Post by: mightycjq on February 03, 2009, 07:06:01 PM
I had heard at a train show that there are "converter sections" of track to connect E-Z Track to regular old school track. Does anyone know if this is true? I heard it from 2 seperate people, yet I haven't been able to find one. Thanks guys.

It is not really needed . The EZ track will connect straight to  flex track

     Hey Don,
    I know there is a Life-like Power-lok adapter piece made, but not made by Bachmann. This piece has a straight end on one side, I think it even
has a recessed space for the E-Z track tab.

        Enjoy,
             Barry

You probably missunderstood what they meant by  "converter sections". Any HO track can attach to other HO track with simple track clips. It dosent matter if the track has roadbed attached or not. You can even attach code 100 track to code 85 with a special transition rail joiners.

I've never used ez track and haven't seen it up close but lifelikes similar type of track has almost like half joiners on each end of rail to transfer power and you can easily pull those off and install full rail joiners to connect regular track
