switching tin plate track to flex track

842OGR Forum Member

Hello all

I have a nice Lionel 3 rail tin plate track in a horseshoe layout. I would like to start to switch the layout to either an Atlas or Gargraves track. Do they make an adaptor so I can run the two together so it's a gradual transition.

Thanks again, Gary

I believe Gargraves has a system Gary. I don't recall for sure since it has been over 20 years since I adapted the two tracks. You may be able to make it work with homemade shims.

Gargraves sells O-27 Lionel to GG track pins....a small shim MAY be needed....but nothing else.
