(...) Hello Chuck, If you're talking about the track used for the 4,5V and 12V trains (Sleepers and rails could be separated from eachother, all plastic parts, rails where blue and without slots first, later light gray and with slots). I've been (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yes, I do own two of these parts. There are no slots and no notches at the ends - the under surface has 15 filled studs, just like the underside of a 1xn plate. However, I do not know which set they belong to. I found them in a mixed lot of (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jul-00, to lugnet.cad)
