Johnson's Roadbed - Where to find it?

Classic Toy Trains Forum
1

I am setting up a loop of track on the hardwood floor of my apartment. I do not want to purchase noisy expensive FasTrack as I have a lot of O tubular track in storage and I want to avoid scratching the floor. There used to be a rubber roadbed product called Johnsons roadbed. They shut down a few years ago and it has become hard to come by. Specifically, I’m looking for a Box of O straits. I found the O-54 curves, and lots of American Flyer is out there but O straits seem to be in short supply.

Does anyone know where I coud find some? I tried the usual sources, Google and ebay, but coming up empty for O straits.

Thanks in advance,
