The Lionel 6-12028 FasTrack Inner Passing Loop Add-on Pack expands a basic FasTrack oval into a layout with a true passing siding — perfect for letting two trains share the same loop, meeting and overtaking just like the prototype. The pack includes a matched pair of left- and right-hand manual switches with quarter curves and two O36 curve sections, all built in Lionel's realistic FasTrack roadbed system.

What does an inner passing loop do for my layout?
It creates a second parallel siding inside your main oval, so two trains can run on the same loop and pass each other realistically — one tucks into the siding while the other rolls by on the main.
Will this work with my existing Lionel FasTrack starter set?
Yes. It uses the standard FasTrack roadbed system and O36 curves, the same geometry as Lionel's basic FasTrack starter ovals, so it drops right in.
Are the switches manual or remote?
Both included switches are manually operated — you throw them by hand at the trackside. No wiring or controller needed.
Do I need any extra power for this pack?
No. There are no electronics or accessory motors in the pack — power simply runs through the rails from your existing transformer.
