Just a metric tonne of flexiflo hoppers, a few fancy Amtrak baggage cars, a couple of B36-7s, all Rapido made of course. Oh and a few hundred cars and about a hundredish other Conrail and CSX locos. And a pile of unbuilt kits and unfinished models. Lol.

Entertaining video. I’ve used both the main line and branch line versions with good success. I tried to find a product review before buying it but based on the price, I took a chance. My only comments are two fold: The product comes in strips as opposed to a continuous length and it does not have a centerline seam or marking that would be useful when laying on curves as the product needs to be cut to lay on curves. There were also no instructions with the product.Not that laying roadbed is challenging, but it would have been nice to hear from Rapido on the methods they recommend to install their product especially on curves. Also, their instructions are usually humorous and enjoyable to read. Overall, it is a great product and the branch line version is a nice addition to the market.
@rapidotrains3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your insightful comments, and I'm glad that you enjoyed the product. It really was an off-the-cuff product. Jason was getting neoprene sheet for his layout so we decided to tack on a roadbed order. Once our current stock is gone, it's gone. Our supplier shut down.

I have wondered if anyone in the model railroad industry has ever hired a sound engineer for the problem of track noise. I have Lionel O gauge trains and on my previous layout I built a yard with Lionel Fastrak and it is loud enough to wake up the dead. I sold it all 3-4 years ago returning to Gargraves and Menards tubular.

I'm curious about 5 things: 1. Sound deadening compared to cork; 2. Curvability; 3. Price compared to cork (which has been climbing); 4. Potential availability of sheets for turnouts and yards; and 5. Where were you with this stuff when I was laying my track 14 years ago?
@rapidotrains3 жыл бұрын
1. Much better than just cork. 2. As-is, you need very broad curves. You need to slice it down the centre for tighter curves. 3. It's more expensive. 4. None - you can buy neoprene sheet much more cheaply from any rubber supplier. 5. Sorry! Actually once we sell out of our current stock, it's gone. We have a lot - but our supplier went out of business.
