These are 2 ft 3 inch gauge tracks. This gauge has become the standard train sim classic narrow gauge. Prototypical narrow gauge railways span a vast range of gauges that would mean each route would need its own stock.

On the left is the lighter 30lb flat bottom rail used on many routes. That on the right is the heavier 50lb rail that continues to be used on many preserved lines. Both are built from plan dimensions.  These tracks can be joined.

Each track is available in a range of ballasts that are compatible and can be used at different places in the same route.

Ballast

  • A: No ballast
  • B: Old stone
  • C: Inset concrete slabs
  • E: Soil & grass
  • J: Lightweight Jubilee track
  • K: Industrial yard
  • N: New stone
  • S: Sand
  • T: Inset in tarmac for roads
  • X: (not shown) rails only for bridges etc

Buffers

Different buffers can be selected for most track types.  The tracks terminate so that no buffers are also an option 

Other features

There are a number of different point lever designs available.  Ther are also single sleepers for placing under point work to retain a true 3D effect.

The track has it’s own sound files with close spaced rail joints.
