I like to build, rebuild, break down, set up, build again, and again and rebuild and so it goes. In other words: I need a track system that is easy to use and easy to set up and take down. The Trix C track stands out when it comes to track systems with built-in track bed. The Trix C track is a derivative of the Märklin C tack, but without the center rail. Trix C track is built for 2-rail operation and comes complete with support for RP25 wheel sets and powered frogs.
Updated: I have added additional images of the turnouts.

Earlier this year, Märklin announced new larger curved points for the C track range. The points are made for both Märklin and Trix C track. Unfortunately, there was no drawing that showed how the geometry worked. This spawned a lot of guessing around the Internet. With the new Märklin and Trix catalogue hitting the streets, the guess work is over, because a drawing is now included.

Finally! The wait is over! Märklin has released two long awaited expansions for the C track: Wide radius curved points. They are released for both the Märklin and Trix C track, which is very good news. This article shows some renderings of the product, product numbers etc.

I have previously discussed how I weather C track. In this article I describe another technique that I have found quite useful. Using NOCH landscape spray colours, you can achieve some very nice effects as well.
