Hey all,

I have some flex track, in HO scale code 100 N/S, that is 36" long and has black ties. It looks like atlas track, but the only marking on the bottom is, GT Italy.

I've only used atlas track in the past, witch is pretty easy to use, and this other track is a lot more stiff than the atlas. Harder to make in a curve.

Can anybody tell me anything about this track, who makes it, is it old track, is it worth my time?

It looks to be in great shape, and I got it for free, (10 pieces), but I'm not sure if I want to spend any time with it. The rails look to be a little darker brassy looking than the atlas, but pretty sure its nickel silver.

Any information would be great, and thanks for your time!

Rich

Model power

This track is marketed by model power and sold in bulk packs of 100.

It is Nickel Silver and has great detail and a very low price, but yes, it is very stiff.
