Thanks Lee and CP Bob.
Looks like I'll have to pull my old Lionel tube track out of the attic and try it. The loco stalls at intermittent spots around the oval with no particular pattern, forwards or backwards. I routinely clean the track with a Northeast Trains track cleaning car using alcohol and dry pads.
Shipping costs for a $500+ order (loco, 4 cars, and 6 wheelsets) was $35 direct from Czech Republic. Fedex package made it to me in Ohio within 6 days. Seems reasonable to me. Great communication with Zuzana at ETS for this and previous orders of Merci Train cars.

I got rid of my Fastrack a few years ago, had enough for a small 3 foot by 9 foot floor layout. The track would not stay clean(it was used in the second floor bedroom, windows were hurricane proof) and I had to use 2 power connections for the 3 by 9 foot layout.

I can only say that some people love Fastrack and some people hate Fastrack. I am one who doesn't like Fastrack.
