Basic loop?

[Solscud007]

Im looking to buy tracks for my TS3 train.

Is 7896 enough?

It lists 8 straight and 8 curved pieces.

However 7938 is just a circle and it has 16 curved pieces.

So does that mean I need 2x sets of 7896 just to make a complete loop?

Should I just buy 8867 flexible track? Is that enough to make a loop?

Thanks

If you choose 7896 the yes you need two, But if you get flexi track I think you may also need two (not sure as I dont own any fexi track). Either way I recomend 7896 as you get straight and curved pieces. Hope I helped.

Thanks, CB

The flex track pack makes a small loop, but I recommend getting 2x of 7896. You can make a nice, smooth oval with them. The flex track makes the train bump and rattle a lot, so it is best used sparingly in combination with normal track to "cheat" the geometry. A pack with some straights and a smaller number of flex pieces is coming out next year, and it will be better than 8867. I never need all 64 pieces of flex track that I have.
