Are the tracks metal or plastic? And the whole train is metal as well, correct?

The tracks themselves are metal and they are fixed to a nice heavy gauge plastic. Only the engine is metal.

FasTrack is what the this set comes with, it's a plastic gray base. The railings are metal, so the train runs on them. The cars are all plastic, but well made. My son is a toddler and he's kind of rough with them. The actual engine is mostly metal though, it's VERY heavy for its size. If the cars were metal it would be a lot harder for the train to pull them. So I like the plastic cars, they are easy to pull. The detail on the train isn't that bad either, its not a expensive set, but I was pleased with the looks. The smoke isn't that thick when it comes out, that could be better. The whistle is kind of soft too, but you get what you pay for. If you are looking for a beginners train set, its not that bad. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions.

No problems with the plastic tracks inside but if your running outside in dirt/grass you want metal tracks. Gear box doesn't need to be metal, if you get the tank wet the plastic is easier to dry. I hope this helps.

Yes and no. The track is mostly a hard plastic with steel track that run the electricity. The cars are all plastic with a steel under it for the base and wheels that run on the track. It is not cheap by any means. This is Lionel O-gauge so you can up grade it and add different cars at any time.

Yellow parts are metal. Thing that hold the tracks are plastic. Other parts are all plastic. We broke one of the tracks because it was held together with plastic yellow wheels but super glue did the trick and fixed it well. Still holding.

It is all metal. It also has a lot of flow when all of the way on. We like it!

I believe they are tin or a similar alloy. Aluminum is not a good electrical conductor. The rails are hollow and can be deformed if you step on the track.

Both... The engine is very heavy and quite beefy, but does have some plastic, the cars are mostly plastic but the wheelsets and wear parts are metal. Overall a well made set that should last a lifetime with a bit of simple upkeep and maintenance. Tracks are quite sturdy as well and can be used on most carpets without any issues. Great set!

Yes, pretty much, but the look is nice for the price. You'll have to pay more for the higher quality lionel engines and cars to get more metal. You get a lot for the price. It makes a great starter set. I actually sold the fastrack and bought the older style lionel track because the cost of additional track in the future would be too much. Hope this helps.
