Shop N Scale track for building a new railroad, expanding an existing layout, or replacing track already in use. Trainz may carry straight and curved sections, flex track, roadbed track, switches, turnouts, crossings, rerailers, feeder track, and other 9mm N Scale track components.
Inventory can include new, pre-owned, vintage, discontinued, estate-find, and hard-to-find track, including individual pieces and larger track lots. When adding to an existing railroad, check the manufacturer, track system, connection style, curve radius, rail type, and geometry before purchasing.
N Scale track is available in several construction styles, and the best choice depends on whether you're building a temporary layout, starter railroad, permanent model railroad, or expanding a system you already own.
If you're expanding an existing railroad, staying with the same manufacturer and track system is usually the easiest way to preserve compatible connections and geometry.
Standard N Scale trains operate on track with a gauge of 9mm, meaning the rails are spaced approximately 9 millimeters apart. In North America, N Scale models are commonly produced at approximately 1:160 scale.
Scale and gauge describe different things: scale refers to the proportional size of the train, while gauge refers to the distance between the rails. The 9mm gauge is one of the defining characteristics of standard N Scale track.
N Scale's compact size allows modelers to create longer runs, broader scenes, and more complex track plans in less space than many larger scales. Layouts can range from a simple oval or switching railroad to multi-track mainlines, yards, industrial districts, passenger terminals, and modular railroads.
Curve radius is especially important. Smaller locomotives and shorter cars may handle tighter curves, while larger steam locomotives, modern diesels, and longer passenger cars can require broader curves for reliable operation and a better appearance. Check the recommended minimum radius for the equipment you plan to run.
If you're planning a new railroad, our Track Plans & Layout Ideas page offers additional inspiration for designing and expanding a model train layout.
Sharing the same 9mm gauge does not mean every N Scale track system connects directly. Rail profile, joiners, roadbed design, switch geometry, curve radius, track height, and connection methods can vary between manufacturers and product lines.
Different track systems can sometimes be combined with adapters, modified connections, or careful installation, but matching the system already in use is generally the simplest approach when expanding an existing layout.
Used N Scale track can be a practical way to expand a railroad, find discontinued track pieces, or purchase a larger quantity of track at once. Trainz inventory may include individual pre-owned straight and curved sections, switches, crossings, flex track, roadbed track, and assorted N Scale track lots.
Older track systems can also appear as collections arrive, which may be useful when you're trying to match a discontinued manufacturer or product line. Before buying used track, review the listing for rail condition, joiners, roadbed, switch operation, missing parts, corrosion, previous layout use, and exactly what is included.
Trainz purchases qualifying N Scale model train collections that may include track, switches, turnouts, locomotives, rolling stock, train sets, structures, scenery, accessories, parts, and other model railroad equipment.

Standard N Scale trains run on 9mm gauge track. In North America, N Scale models are commonly produced at approximately 1:160 scale.
N Scale track may include sectional track, flex track, integrated-roadbed track, straight and curved sections, switches, turnouts, crossings, rerailers, feeder track, rail joiners, and other specialty components.
Sometimes, but sharing the same 9mm gauge does not guarantee direct compatibility. Rail profile, track height, joiners, roadbed, geometry, and connection methods can differ between manufacturers.
The right radius depends on the locomotives and rolling stock you plan to operate. Larger steam locomotives, six-axle diesels, and long passenger cars may require broader curves than smaller engines and shorter cars.
Yes. Depending on current inventory, Trainz may offer individual used N Scale track pieces as well as larger assorted lots containing straight track, curves, switches, crossings, and other components.
Yes. Pre-owned inventory may include discontinued and hard-to-find N Scale track systems or components as older collections arrive.
