ABSTRACT:
The present invention shows a system for providing a track-bed with a real-life appearance in a model railroad. The system is comprised of three separate components which may be assembled in combination to meet the needs of various track formations. A first component is intended to fit between the track bases of a model railroad track, and both curved and straight variations of the first component are provided. A second component is intended to fit between the track bases of adjoining sections of track, and both curved and straight-sided variations of the second component may be provided, or a single version which may be trimmed to fit either a straight or curved application might be provided. The third component is triangular in cross-section and closes the open sides of the first and second components at the side of the track. The third component is preferably flexible in nature and may be provided in any suitable length. The straight variation of the first component and both straight and curved variations of the second component may be provided in any suitable length, and may be trimmed to fit any track layout situation.
