Fast Tracks Tie Rack tie jigs for HO, Branchline trackwork makes it easy to lay individual ties onto your roadbed.

Placing individual ties onto your layout one by one and ensuring that they are properly spaced can be tedious and challenging. The Fast Tracks Tie Rack tie spacing jig makes this job faster and easier, replacing the tedium of working hunched over your layout with an evening of preparing strips of ties at your workbench in just a few easy steps.

Fast Tracks Tie Racks:

  • Can be used to create straight or flexible tie strips
  • Modular design means you can make jigs of any length
  • Pockets cut slightly oversized to replicate the slight randomness that is typical of prototype ties

Each Tie Rack package includes two 10″ lengths. Puzzle like locking tabs allow you to connect Tie Racks to create a jig of any length.

Tie Racks are also available for Branchline and Siding trackwork.

    Fine looking product! If it performs as well as the Turnout Kits, going to love it. Will be using over the winter on an HO Freemo Module.

    The product is built to order and it did take some time to get to me. However, Fast Tracks kept me posted via email every step of the way. And the wait was worth it. Laser cut for accuracy; solid wood pieces. I’ve already used it to build a mantel piece to show one of my locomotives. The quality far exceeds the cost of the product.

    Like all of Fast Tracks products, the workmanship for this Tie Rack is excellent. It accepts the Kappler ties I’m using perfectly. If they could laser mark a center line down the thing that would help. Also, It would be helpful if they described the difference among the three tie racks. I ordered the Mainline and Branchline ones and found the Branchline Tie Rack has 4 fewer ties in a section and the ties are a bit more irregularly spaced…but you’d never know this to look at their sales info.
