Are you talking about the R80001 rail joiners and R80002 track screws?

Do you need the 'fishplates' and screws? If so, how many are you after?

I'll have a look in the morning Bill. I'm pretty sure I put them somewhere safe when I replaced them with Hillman clamps. There may be some Aristo ones too. From memory I think the Aristo jobs were a little longer. I also seem to remember there were some with a 'tongue' that slotted into the final sleeper similar to what you find on the LGB rail joiners so you had to release all the screws on the underside of the track before you could slide the rail back to release the joiners.

Yes, the USA rail joiners have the LGB-style tongue and the Aristo-style screw holes.

Hi Bill. I've found my box of track fittings. There appear to be three types of the ones you are after. If as Chris Vernall says the USA Train ones are those with a 'tongue' then I have nine. If they are either of the other two variants then I have a reasonable supply. I also have a fair number of the hex headed bolts. Photos below.
Such superb organisation.
