Where can I find G Scale plastic track for Bachmann trains?  What about plastic switch tracks?

Jim Banner

It has been many years since Bachmann made plastic track and the large scale trains to run on it.  As far as I know, they never made switches for it.  This all plastic track still shows up from time to time on eBay.  Alternately, the battery powered, radio controlled Big Haulers can be run on Bachmann's G gauge track with tin plate rails or on the G gauge track from other companies.  My solution 25 years ago was to hand lay my own track, including switches and crossings, by spiking aluminum rails onto cedar ties.  There is more information on this at the link below:
