Rerailer help

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Friends,

I recall seeing a new product in Model Railroad News a while back for a rerailer that is placed between the rails of existing track, not a 9" sectional track rerailer. I gave away my back issues and cannot locate the product. Anyone with a better memory than be?

Thanks for the help.

That’s what you get for getting rid of your back issues! Unfortunately I don’t remember the product.

Sounds like the RIX product ($2.99)

That’s an interesting patent (I assume that’s what the OP meant rerailer) but it sure looks like it could be contructed in much the same way a bridge protection rerailer is made on prototype roads with some scrap styrene and few lengths of leftover rail.

Thanks, I believe this is the product. The location in Arizona is right on.

Now to find a source. I’ll let the forum know how they work if I can find them.
