I don't need any, I got this box for free. I'm just talking about retail prices for new manufacture & for used track in like new condition. I got that $2.50 price point from the advertiser here called "The Tin Man" & the new price from Modeltrainstuff.com. That's about what it goes for in hobby shops. I'm just trying to illustrate the amount you could save doing this proceedure as compared to higher end, nicer stuff. The track under the table at the train shows will be stuff like I already have to restore here, so if you had to buy it, that would cut into the savings, but it will still be cheaper if you don't HAVE to have "new & shiny" track. For me, it's ok. The peices that come out looking real good can go where you can see them on the layout & the stuff with the gray marks can go in a tunnel, or wherever else you don't see them, maybe on the backside of the table near a wall or between buildings.
