joelfinch Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 The official 9V crossroad track piece sits at around $20 each at the moment - I wish I had a bunch! No sign of a PF track version either... My 4yr old Thomas the Tank Engine fanatic is quite insistent that the LEGO trains be able to crash together properly, so I built a crossroad from more common parts: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41066434@N08/8582940504/in/photostream Hopefully this method will be helpful to someone else out there!

Rich B Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 That is sweet! I may have to try building one of these. I wonder why Lego no longer sells crossroad pieces? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too specialised, I would guess - for every crossroad in someone's layout, there's 40 or 50 straight and curved segments, so it wouldn't be a huge seller, in a theme that LEGO already apparently considers not a huge seller. I'm kinda glad they still make points! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
