Midwest Scale Rail, LLC is a company owned and operated by Carl Schidt. Carl posted the following on Facebook, May 2015:
- I am officially launching my rail supply business. I have 3 profiles of aluminum rail available for 1/8th scale railroads, and am considering adding steel rail as well. All 3 profiles are 1" tall, 6061 aluminum with a T6 hardness. I have traditional West Coast style rail with a 7/8" base priced at $1.10 per foot. I have 2 new profiles, based on modern 141 pound rail, both with 15/16" bases. The standard 141 lb. version will accept all standard joiners, 1/8" x 1/2" x 4" flat bar joiners, pressed Railroad Supply style joiners, and Train Mountain slip on joiners, priced at $1.15/ foot. The heavy duty 141 lb. version, has a heavier base, and uses a 3/16" x 3/8" x 4" flat bar joiner, priced at $1.20 / foot. I can supply rail in 10', 12', and 20' lengths. My 141 lb. rail, has a more prototypical rounded head than the traditional West Coast style rail. This will provide for longer rail life, less resistance, and less wear on rolling stock wheels.
