RE: List
Hi, Try Brandbright at: http://www.steamup.com/brandbright/ for Peco products. They also do other track systems you might consider. I am given to understand that code 200 rail may not be heavy enough for live steam operation and you could have problems with wear. Also the chairs and sleepers are plastic and there may be problems with this material softening from heat when used with a live steam engine (particularly when it is stationary). As I do not yet have my own system operating others would need to comment on these aspects of rail/track choice. My personal preference for my Gauge 1 track (at the moment - I may change my mind) is for wooden sleepers with spiked flat bottom rail. Which Brandbright also do in 32 mm. Best wishes, Susan. P.S. If you ever get over to South West England a visit to the Peco factory display and garden is well worth while, and their 7.25" narrow gauge railway (oops sorry, railroad) is great fun. S.
