  1. Wanted
    I’m looking for original or reproduction figures from some of the early manufacturers. Plasticville really catered to model railroading accessories, but also briefly produced a series of structures and figures for slot cars in 1/32 and HO scale. I’m searching for originals or reproductions of...

    Hi, this is Frankie! some of you might know my scenery track "Albertona Raceway MK2" https://www.slotforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=201905&page=1 There is one item amongst the scenery I would like to make a separate thread because it is an universal thing. I am talking about straw...

    We are all into Slot car racing. Inevitably, you may pick up a few cars just for track scenery. One of my friends termed these cars "sit arounds". It's a fitting name. What are some of your favorite "sit arounds"??? So many cars... So little time...

    I'm planning to lay down the white stripes deliminating the edges of my circuit. I'm thinking of attaching an "L" hook to the striping tool as a guide. It has me wondering whether there were other markings commonly used in the late 1950s and early 1960s? The circles opposite the pits for Le...

    My first routed track is a 3-lane road course based on Suzuka that I found in the May 1965 issue of Model Car & Track. It's roughly 17'x4' and includes a longer straight as recommended in hindsight by the original designer. I've finished the open bench work, joined the routed sections, then...

    Hi everyone, I picked up 6 ft of 5/8 radiater hose (ie heater hose) and cut pieces up with a hacksaw. Not all the pieces are even or the same width. It became a bit of a chore after the first 50 or so. I think it adds to the charm somewhat; not all tires are the same. Here is what I have so...
  7. Tracks & Scenery
    Several years ago I started working on a slot car track in my basement using plastic track pieces: Scalextric Classic, Scalextric Sport and SCX Classic. Along the way I put copper tape on the rails for better conductivity. Here's a rather amateur photo collage that show the overall layout...

  9. Tracks & Scenery
    It's been a few years since I had chance to set up my track, but I was rummaging through a few old photos so I thought I might as well post them. It's a temporary analogue Scalextric track, mixed Sport and Classic, with some attempt at scenery modules, buildings, figures, trees etc. The...

    Hi All, It's been a while since I last posted anything here about my Westleigh circuit, so I think it's time to bring things up to date. My main tracks have been in my shed which does cause some restrictions on what I can build and if you haven't seen my past efforts or need a refresher the...
