O RealTrax 5.5” Straight Track/2pk
At M.T.H. we believe a track system should allow your model
railroad empire to grow. The RealTrax system includes 72 different
components for maximum expansion capabilites. You’ll find bridges,
curves of all sizes, elevated and graduated trestles, crossovers, and
every straight and curved configuration you’ll need to create your own
model railroad empire. And every piece of RealTrax is rugged,
realistic, and reliable so you can have fun running your trains.
Rugged
Because most toy train empires begin on a carpet or floor,
RealTrax is designed to hold up to the rigors of childhood play. Strong
snap-together connections make it easy to assemble or change a layout
in minutes. And the built-in roadbed helps keep dirt on the floor away
from the wheels and gears of your trains.
Realistic
With its realistic crossties and ballasted roadbed, RealTrax
looks like the mainline track used by heavy freights and high-speed
passenger trains. Unlike older O gauge track with a round cross
section, RealTrax uses flat-top “T”-rail like a real railroad.
Reliable
Nickel silver rail ensures that RealTrax will never rust.
Spring-loaded phosphor bronze contacts provide superior electrical
connections between track sections. The contacts are spring loaded to
maintain a solid connection over time and are highly resistant to
corrosion of any kind. Similar materials are used in many electrical
connections around your home, such as lamps, battery-operated
appliances, and electrical outlets.
RealTrax switches feature the same durable construction as
regular RealTrax sections and utilize long-lasting switch motors that
provide precise throws every time. The reversible motor mechanism
quickly snaps onto the other side of the switch if space is a problem.
No disassembly of the switch is required! Lighted switch controllers
allow you to throw a switch remotely from a distance, and lights on the
controller indicate which direction the switch is thrown – green for
straight and red for curved.
