AusRail
"The Flexible Rail"
Including Other Related Track Accessories for code 332 Rail.

Please note that AusRail Sleeper Bed is made in Australia!

The brass used to make our rail is produced with a very specific combination of copper and zinc and very minute quantities of aluminum and lead to improve corrosion resistance.

Each batch of rail produced is identically consistent. With precisely the same composition of raw materials used in its manufacture on each occasion. At the end of each production run, the product is analyzed to ensure that the combination of raw materials used in the goods are correct. A Mill test certificate is then issued to this effect.

The finished product is totally compatible in every way with the brass rail used in LGB and Piko code 332 brass track.

When the rail and sleeper bed are assembled the track can be flexed manually into the required curve.

Track laying instructions are available by email or by the following link:

____________________

Rail can be personally collected from our premises. Otherwise plastic sleeper bed and accessories can be sent via Australia post at cost. Because the brass Rail exceeds the regulation length for posting, it can only be sent by courier to a street address.

In addition to the cost of the courier, a separate at cost charge applies to packaging of the Brass Rail.
____________________

We have an endless supply of AusRail and track laying accessories, and also a keep a large range
of LGB and Piko track items and points in stock.

All are compatible with each other, and all are of equal quality.

However the cost of purchasing LGB or Piko track is twice the price of AusRail.

For example 600mm LGB or Piko Straight lengths cost $40.00 each, which mean three lengths of 600mm a total of 1800mm, would cost $120.00.

Whereas on the other hand, one 1800mm section of AusRail costs on the average $56.00 a length.
See special offers above.

As well as using it in straight lengths, AusRail is designed to be flexed into a curve but no less than about a 5' diameter circle.

The cost of shipping the 1800mmm lengths of brass rail, does cost more than posting LGB or Piko track. However the overall cost of using AusRail,
in comparison with LGB & Piko track, is to your advantage .

Don't hesitate should you have any further questions.

Please email for a quote. However to give you an accurate quote for transport and postage we do require your full name, street address and mobile number.

NB: (BRASS RAIL CAN ONLY BE SHIPPED TO A STREET ADDRESS).

HOW THE BRASS RAIL IS PACKED BEFORE SHIPPING.

The brass rail is packaged with two new lengths of dressed pine slightly longer than the lengths of brass rail. Heavy-duty angle cardboard is used to bind the rail using very strong tape. This process creates a box which is then slipped into a thick heavy duty plastic sleeve.

This procedure takes about 20 minutes, and the cost of the packaging alone is in excess of $19.00 per parcel of up to 24 lengths of Brass Rail, which is our current flat rate charge for the whole process.
