Atlas track source

Steve, Charles Ro has these at $18.95 each plus shipping.  Pat B.

You may quickly find that advertised or listed prices like Ro at $18.95 are misleading because the website has not been updated and the listed track is limited or out of stock. I am building a large layout using Atlas O and searched many places for the lowest price on 40" sections. IF you can find ANY at $18.95 buy as many as you can. You will end up paying an average price of about $22 + shipping.

When the dust clears you will pay $5-$6 per foot for new track and $70 each for O-72 switches. BEWARE THE SWITCHES ! Be certain you buy ONLY the new, more robust, switches with brass wire conveyors. Otherwise, you will go bald.

Thanks to both Pat B and to you Scrappy.  I'll be searching around for the best prices.  I'll even be looking for used track in good condition.  Flex track is the only type of track I need.

Scrappy; best of luck on your new layout!

I recently order a bunch of Atlas Track from T&K Hobby. They have the 40” flex at $20.99, however their shipping is much cheaper than anywhere else I have looked. Their customer service is fantastic and I would recommended them. I would give them a call and see if you can get some bulk pricing.

Basically, what we do is custom quote the track because of the shipping costs..... we send out a spreadsheet and get the customers' needs, then work up the cost and the shipping and send them back a quote..... I have also found Deichman's Depot to be very competitive on Atlas O track prices..... 

Thanks for this information!

I haven't needed flex track for years but have had occasion to pick up other pieces.  If I have enough lead time I wait until Trainworld has a sale or for CTT to offer a Trainworld 10% off coupon.  I will also say that T&K is good to work with.

Track is one item that there is sufficient markup that dealers are able to discount if you are wanting to buy in quantity.
