Will my Dad's 1928 O gauge American Flyer run on this? It runs on 3 rail O gauge tubular track now but the masonite backing on the tracks is rotting.

O gauge is O gauge, same size and width between tracks. My 70 year old Lionels run great on FASTRACK.

I think your best option is contacting Bachmann as stated by the other commenters. Do you have a local Hobby Shop that does train repair? Local model railroad club or n scale online forums may also be of help.

It is made for O guage trains and worked with mine . . . unless there are different guages of "fast track" that i am not aware of.

It is designed for the self-powered Trackmaster trains. I think the wheel base on the wooden and die cast trains is smaller so they would not work correctly. Also, the structure would probably not be sturdy enough for the child-propelled (by hand) trains without a lot of repairs.

Yes, O gauge. Does not work directly with conventional tubular O gauge track without a transition section though.

Hi Denise. It's not any scale or track ready. I asked if it will fit ho model railway and they said yes. But the car itself is actually bigger then a g gauge train. Lol. It's about 300 mm long and about 150 mm wide. It's just a toy car that has the rail wheels tucked up ready for use as in the movie. But they don't move up or down. Anyways it just a big model car with a bad description. If you want one ill sell you mine for half the price I paid, it's never been opened and probly never will. Lol. Ok I hope I helped you not fall into the same trap I fell into. As I thought it'd look awesome running around my track. Ok. Maxx

Since spec for track in question does not indicate the scale I can't provide an answer, but if a were to guess I would say that if this is "O"scale track then it would NOT be compat. with "G"scale as "G" scale is larger.

The tracks don't all connect, but there is a piece so in the roundhouse to connect some. The die cast trains themselves do fit on both.

It is my understanding that this is an O-Gauge track. I am not an expert tho. BTW: I see someone said that it is cheap and not worth purchasing. Not sure how old their grandson is/was, but my son loved this set and it is still functional years later. Don't buy this for a toddler. Follow manufactuers recommended ages as always and enjoy!

I would love to answer your question, but my brother is nuts. My mother and I purchased this as present for him after he had had a rough year with illness and the death of wife. We figured he could put it up in his basement and make a little town and maybe get another train to add later. But for some reason, he has never opened it and put it together. He says it is a collector's item. All I can say, is I'm sorry and my brother's a nut.

I'm sorry, I don't know. I bought this for my Greatgrandson and had it delivered in another state. I did not see it in person. I do know that the track can be put together in different shapes.

Yes, as long as the metal runners on the bottom match up with the rails in the track

A friend of mine and I have this train. He actually had it first, and I bought it after because I like it so much. I am in the same situation as you. He says he buys extra track from a reseller, and will be sending me his information today. I will post the answer shortly.

I purchased this for a small layout running O and N gauge engines w/cars. It works just fine. Hope this helps.

The problem might be that the track is oxidized and the engine has oxidation on the electrical contacts. I used an electrical contact treatment on an HO scale engine with great results. Try something like lifelike brand track cleaner or Caig labs Deoxit or Progold The engine also needs lubricating with a light weight oil like 3 in one.

I can't say for sure. If you already have a wooden track set you should probably stick with wooden trains.

It is compatible with the wooden trains.. Not sure about the tracks.. The best gift we've gotten so far for our son. We got it for Christmas and has not stopped using it since ..
