        I lost the original message so am replying to yours.  There are
many sources and makes of track.  Shinohara is one of the more realistic
brands.  Remember that code 70 track can cause trouble with spike heads
hitting wheel flanges if used with AHM locos with the deep flanges, and
other imports.  The person who is looking for track should check out the
new code 83 (rail is 0.083" high) track made by Shinohara and distributed
by Walthers.  It should be in SF shops.  I bought a length to look at
from the San Antonio Hobby Shop in Mt.View(Cal) and it looks good.
