H0n3 snap tracks?

[swissboy]

Hi everybody, I am new to this forum and thus I am not aware whether my topic has already been discussed.

I own a few H0n3 models but I don't have a layout. Every now and then I would like to run my models. For this, I'd need a possibility to quickly set up a layout. And here is the problem. It's completely frustrating to try such a temporary layout with the flex tracks I own. I am aware of some switches that I think are or that used to be available, but no other tracks that one could use. I wonder whether there are any such snap tracks that are readily available.

As the number of reasonably priced models is on the increase (e.g. the galloping geese from ConCor), I sure would like to buy some more. But without such snap tracks I think I might just as well enjoy those models that I already own.

I know of no one that makes snap track for HOn3. Will do some checking and get back to you if I find something.

Isn't HOn3 just n scale track????

HOn30 is the same width between rails as N scale. However, HOn30 can use the stock N ties. Or as some do, they hand lay using HOn3 ties.

There is HOn3 track available. Switches and flex. But I don't believe there's an actual "snap track" such you think of from a maker such as Atlas.

' HOm' track is made, and depending upon slop
in your equipment may be useful to you. There
is not a great deal of variety in prefabbed
'HOm', but you can GOOGLE that out yourself.

Good-Luck smile.gif Thank you all for your replies. Looks to me like there is still a niche to be filled in an otherwise rather well satiated market.

pjb: I own H0m (made by Bemo), it is 12mm wide for the original 1 meter gauge. However, my H0n3 models are falling off the track on those H0m tracks. Just like an original built for 90 centimeter tracks could not possibly be accomodated on a track of 1 meter gauge.
