Rebranded aristo or USA Trains...they both come from the same factory.
 
Philip,
The new Bachmann track is indeed made in the same factory as Aristo/ USAT, but the tie strips are a new narrow gauge design

That is good news! about time Bachmann made some decent track and the Chinese brass is better that the German rail, hopefully the plastic will be UV resistant which has been a problem with some brands in the past.
 
Those prices are bit eye watering though!!
 
Bachmann list prices are always 2 or 3 times more than the dealer price although all brass track is a painfull price at the moment.
 
One thing noticeably different to Aristo track, which is what I have, is the hexagonal screws are in the rail rather than in wax below the sleepers/ties.
Even so Bachmann, together with nearly all the other companies who have introduced track ranges in recent years, still offer a very limited selection of track lengths and radii.
 
I´d like to see the hammer, which drove down the railroad spikes in the Bachmann ties in the picture above. Suppose they glued the tie plates to the sleepers.

Almost unbelievable what some makers dare to offer to customers.

Have Fun
