I had the same shock, but that was some 9-10 years ago (the 9V tracks were
introduced in 1990, but the 'grey' tracks were available until 1994 IIRC).

I think you mean 12V, since the 4,5V trains carry their own power in a car and
should have little problem to run on 9V tracks. I would 'upgrade' the current
motors and run on 9V tracks.

I can imagine that ;-)

I don't think there is enough demand for that, since this would be parts for
tracks that are obsolete for about 10 years now...
