I lifted my outdoor G scale track earlier this year, and here it is for sale at 25% of RRP.
I'm sure most of you know that PIKO G scale track is code 332 brass and completely compatible with LGB and Aristo-Craft.
The track has been outside for three years, but it is all structurally intact. Some of the fishplates have been removed as I was gradually converting to rail clamps, but a bag of more than enough fishplates will be provided if the buyer wants them.
One of the points is missing the small spring as I found it interfered with the point motor movement. The points can be driven with PIKO or LGB point motors. The points are boxed for what it's worth.
One of the buffer stops has a hole drilled in the top to take an LGB "end of line" lamp (not included).
One of the power clamps has a shortened lead.
The list includes R5 points, R3 curves and various straight pieces.
Note that PIKO R5 is 4 ft radius (1243mm) and R3 is 3ft radius (922mm).
Retail prices (RP) are from top-slots which is generally recognised to be the cheapest PIKO retailer in the UK with 20% off UK RRP.
The full list:
1 x R5 left hand 4 ft 22.5 degree point G-WLR5 (35222) with 7.5 degree R5 piece G-R5-7.5(35216) RP £57.59
2 x R5 right hand 4 ft 22.5 degree point G-WRR5 (35223) with 7.5 degree R5 piece G-R5-7.5 (35216) RP £57.59
12 x R3 30 degree 3 ft curves G-R3 (35213) enough to make a circle RP £11.19
4 x 600mm straights G-G600 (35208) RP £11.19
2 x 320mm straights G-G320 (35200) RP £5.79
1 x 280mm straight G-G280 (35201) RP £5.39
1 x 160mm straight G-G160 (32202) RP £3.59
2 x 140mm straight G-G140 (35203) RP £3.29
2 x 95mm straight G-G95 (35204) RP £3.19
2 x buffers (35280) RP £4.99
7 x power clamps (35270) RP £6.59
Finally an LGB interloper
1 x 90 degree crossing (13100) boxed RP £26.50 (price from Gaugemaster)
All this new would be £468 RP. Anyone who takes the lot and collects can have it at 30% of the retail price or £140. That's 25% of RRP.
At this stage I would MUCH prefer to sell the whole lot in one go. I might consider selling individual items if no-one takes this offer up but at nowhere near that discount. Also I would much prefer "buyer collects" (Ascot , Berkshire) but would be prepared to discuss other options.
Pictures below.

The whole lot (box included for buyer of whole lot!).
