View Full Version : I need as much tyco/mattel single lane as I can get.
mrwillysgasser 04-02-2003, 01:02 PM I need as much tyco/mattel single lane as I can get. I am building a slot car train set to go with my layout. I am not much into model trains so I will do it my way .A single lane slot track and resin streamliner train with a 440 Tyco motors and magnets in each car. This baby should run fast like a true streamliner. not much for purest train guys, but right up my alley.
Also looking for tyco reg curves and banks also will trade my bodies for either.
ParkRNDL 04-02-2003, 01:55 PM I have some of this stuff. Not a whole ton, but some. I know I'll never use it. I'll email you when I can get home and check it out...
I have that station wagon to send you anyway...

Did you know that Tyco made a train for slot tracks? Do a search on ebay for Tyco twin turbo. There are usually some listed. If you search for Tyco turbo trains you can see the slot train they did for regular HO train track. Both types are powered by the Tyco X2 motor and have traction bar mags in the cars. If you want to see them up close I can send you a set of each.
If interested just email me.

I have a TYCO X-Treme racing set..lmk if inetersted.It comes with 2 cars in original box
If you want some new, the Mattel 'Battle Slam' set comes with a good bit of single-lane track. Otherwise, check out any flea markets, garage sales, thrift stores, and slot car/ toy/train shows in your area. The 'Super Duper Double Looper' sets are the ones to look for as they have single-lane tracks in them. You can also see if your local hobby shop can order some for you.

mrwillysgasser 04-03-2003, 01:35 PM Thanks I have been buying this stuff up for a wile. But with my new store opening soon (SHIPSHEWANA INDIANA) I am building a couple of tracks for others to play on. when I started laying out them and my ridgeway run track out. I found myself short on curves. long and short and even banks. I have gotten results already and if all the deal go though I might have enuff .did I say enough can you ever have enough?
