N / N Scale Flextrack with EZ Track?
May 11, 2010, 05:18:27 PM
I have an N-Scale layout using EZ track that needs some "adjustment" to avoid derailings.  Is it possible to use flextrack with Bachman's EZ track?  It looks like PECO has the only code 80 flextrack!

Thanks guys.   I'll give it a try...........

I have 3 EZ-Track re-railers which are used to connect to the power pack.  Unfortunately, the re-railers have a "jack" which plugs into the power pack.
Since I only have 2 power packs, is it possible for me to splice 2 of the re-railer wires together into a single jack?

Always glad to meet another Joe!  And I appreciate your interest in helping a "newbie".  The table is 72" wide, but I wanted to have another loop going around the outside of the"8".  That would probably leave about 60" to work with.......

Just tried the anyrail system for Bachman EZ-Track & it works great.  The only problem I had - probably not software related - was that I couldn't complete a figure 8 layout since there's no flextrack in EZ-Track and the fixed pieces are not the right lenghts.  Any hints on how to cope with this would be appreciated.........

General Discussion / N Scale Traction Problem
May 17, 2009, 02:17:32 PM
Just starting out in model railroading and bought the Bachman Prairie Flyer train set.  I know it was relatively cheap, but it seems to have problems getting traction.  Wheels just spin at various spots on the layout.  Is this normal?  If so, can anything be done to improve the traction?
