Lionel trains . . . almost everybody grew up with them. How about displaying your vintage O-scale trains
on either a static display or an operational system? We design and build O-scale systems that are very similar to our G-scale
systems. Almost any type of track will work fine on our wooden trestle system. We recommend Atlas brand track as it looks great
and works better than the antique Lionel track.
We currently produce the O-72 (O-scale with a 72" diameter) curve track for all O-scale systems. Curves
that are smaller than that, say the O-54, are too small to look appealing. The larger the curve, the better the train looks and
operates. As for the brackets, they are very similar to the G-scale brackets - just smaller. The width of our track for O-scale
is 5" (7" for G-scale). This allows plenty of room for long passenger cars on curves where overhang is a concern.
