Central Valley 2001 HO Scale Mainline 9' Long Ties CVT Tie Strip

50 Pack

The ultimate in mainline authenticity, this set of HO scale tie strips represents the 9-foot prototype ties favored on heavily trafficked routes. These longer ties were a hallmark of mainline construction, providing maximum lateral stability and support for heavier locomotives and rolling stock, making them a subtle but important feature that separates mainline track from lighter branch line trackage.
