Blue Plastic Tracks

Anyone collecting these? Awesome but out of my budget I'm afraid.

Ah...the vintage Super Rail Black line. I never have had any trains or black track but some the accessories are a great fit for Plarails.

Same here.... The few I’ve seen have all been well outside my budget.

Same here, until I managed to kick the Japanese auction habit I kept looking trains/sets and was sorely tempted, but I figured at the time the value for money was poor in comparison to other things I could pick up. Besides I got enough collections going already lol!

Nigels you could start a Collection of Collections

That’s always been an issue for me. Not merely the price but the value. Japanese prototype railroad modeling can be expensive in scales larger than N but some of the more common diesels and electrics aren’t too outrageous in HO scale from bigger companies like Kato. By comparison, vintage Super Rail items can cost nearly as much as some HO Japanese prototype steam locomotives.

Are they powered by batteries?

Yes, consider them to be PlaRail, but designed to be closer to correct scale, so sort of an HO/PlaRail hybrid.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I do have Super Rail Black. Specifically the Brazilian only version of it, which has a pretty big community surrounding it. It’s quite impressive how these toys are still popular today despite being discontinued a long time ago.
