RAPIDO BENDY TRACK

RAPIDO TRAINS BENDY TRACK
CODE 83 AND CODE 100
RAIL JOINERS INCLUDED WITH TRACK

Our track features fine spike detail, with four spikes per tie and the spikes offset from each other just like many prototypes. It’s not too clunky like some commercial track, and it’s not too fine like others so your rails won’t pull up out of the spikes. The wood grain is subtle rather than overdone. So often the woodgrain on commercial track is so pronounced it looks like it belongs on the walls of a 1970s basement (complete with shag carpet!) and not on HO scale ties.

Most importantly, it bends easily and then gently springs back – remember, it’s Bendy! – and it doesn’t kink like some commercial track. On the other hand, it doesn’t have so much tortional strength that it will overpower your caulk or pins that are holding it down. If you use acrylic caulk to glue down your track, you will only need a couple of pins (if any) to keep the whole piece in place while the caulk is drying. If you use nails, the ties are half-drilled from below every few inches so you can easily poke through to create nail holes.
Bendy Track track is available in 3-foot lengths hand even comes packaged with rail joiners! No more getting home from the hobby shop only to discover that you can’t connect your tracks because you forgot to buy rail joiners! (See, we ARE hobbyists – we’ve been there and done that too!)
