Good evening all! As I have posted previously, I am a member of my local tram preservation group (Perth Electric Tramway Society - www.petswa.org.au) We are coming up soon to our 40th anniversary, so as part of our celebrations we plan on having open days for our carbarn. As part of our displays we would like to have a small model tramway set up. I've had plenty of experience with modelling overhead catenary and trolley wire, but my question is in regards to prototypical grooved track used in tramways. I have found a product online from the US at https://www.proto87.com/Street_track_for_trolleys_and_trams.html but I am looking for opinions on other similar track that might be available in HO Scale. The proto 87 track looks good but I know the maker is looking to wind up production possibly due to retirement, and laying the track looks very time consuming (But not something that would turn me off using it). Has anyone had experience with any other similar products, or knows any website or company that sells such track? I found the Tilig track but it seems they discontinued it back in 2023. Also their track was quite expensive, and being a volunteer organisation, funding is a bit tight (I will probably cover part of the cost myself to help out). Thanks in advance for your help!
