So I'm building my layout and I was inspecting/cleaning tracks, while Cleaning I found some rust on the rails of a turnout. Should I replace it? Or will it be fine?
-Thanks
Rust is unfortunately one of the potential problems with the steel rail track in the Bachmann sets. Another is that it is very hard to solder to it if you want to add feeders, or if you need to jumper around a frog. Personally, I'd replace it with nickle silver if it's giving you problems. Better to do it now before all the track is in place, than to have to uproot the track later to remove it.
Bachmann is still selling steel rail track?

Yes it is still in the 2025 catalog in some of the layout expander sets, and presumably the train sets as well.
