(...) My thoughts were for the track, someone gives me say a box of 8 straights, I give them 8 12v straights and so on. For the others (level crossing and signals) I really don't know what price to put on them or what price they'd fetch at auction. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.au)

I've got 12v track. I'm seriously considering going to 9v (despite the lack of remote points and signaling). To this end I'm looking to do a trade on the track I have now. If there's someone out there in Oz who wants more 12v excellent, otherwise (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.au)
