Gary,Do you know whether the ME solution is hazmat with regards to shipping?Best wishes, Dave
As far as I know all current N scale track is nickle silver. Way back in the late 60s someone (MiniTrix?) tried steel track, or at least SOMETHING magnetic, but that seems to have disappeared very quickly. I have a piece of it, but that's all I ever found, and that was by accident, in a junk bin at the hobby shop in the late 70s.
Yes, Minitrix seemed to have used stainless steel for a while. I still have bunch of that flextrak. Arnold Rapido also used a blackened steel track.
...all of the currently available track is nickel silver.
I don't think the MiniTrix track was stainless steel. It may have been galvanized or plated, but mine seems too tarnished to be stainless. I
Don't know for sure Dave, but I just punched a fake order into MBK's site (modeltrainstuff) and put in an address for a D Schneider in Anchorage and it gave me a valid USPS Priority shipping option, so I think it should be fine. You might be able to source the Jax locally though.-gfh
