unlikely that I'll be getting my Track from existing sets, but hey, s@h is
there I guess.

There's also Bricknet... 10% off RRP and cheaper (or free) shipping than S@H.

point is, I would imagine that your collection contains a
fair amount of pieces needed for trains, except the bogies, motors and
couplings

Yes, I do have the odd piece floating around (including some 4.5V train stuff),
so while lots of pieces at a low cpp is always good, it's not my focus for this
exercise.

I'll see how cheap a cheap Hi-Speed set I can find and take it from there...
