thank you all for the information - i knew this information exist and i looked for a long time

at our family there is a tradition to build the system every year for a period of month.

we started to built it yearly since about 1960.

my grand parents emigrated from Germany just before the second world war begun and since than we have it.

best regards and thank you

David

Regards,
Madhu

No, the cross section of M track and C Track is slightly different. The C Track bed is 2mm wider than the M Track bed. and they use totally different electrical connections. The width difference causes big problems when you try to use older bridge sections from various vendors (Including Marklin) with C Track; the track slot is too narrow for C track to fit, and there is NO easy fix. Make sure any bridge you obtain specifically states it will fit C Track or ALL track styles! M Track will fit into C Track bridges, but will be be a slightly loose. Just shim it a bit. Also there is sometimes an issue with some pre-made passenger station platform sets, but that can usually be tweaked. To use C Track with a narrow platform (between parallel tracks), make sure the platform is the newer 38mm wide, and not the older 40mm wide.
