Hi, im currently rebuilding my papa's old HO model railway and I need some new parts, But I dont know if he currently has code 100 track or code 83...Anyway I could tell?
 
Its silver..I turned it over and it says bachman on the back..So its not atlas..But this model railroad has no Roadbed an i went on bachmans website and all the track they have is the stuff with roadbed..This is a really oldset btw, its about...15 years old.
 


Bachmann never made regular code 83 track. 99% of their track was made for train sets and it's all code 100.
 
That's the old style Bachmann sectional track, used before they went to EZ-Track. It's probably steel rail. Test it with a magnet. If the magnet doesn't stick to it then it's nickel-silver.
