Not at all. Sorry if I left that impression. The conversion to lay 9V
track where the current track lies is extremely easy. It's basically a
case of removing the track and replacing it. It is dimensionally exactly
the same except for the extra sleepers (ties in US parlance)

User error on my part. 12V and 4.5V are very similar. Same outside
rails. But 4.5V is battery powered, 12V is not. It has an extra set of
conductors on a strip down the middle to transmit power to the motors.
Also the Lugnet DB does not yet show 12V/9V/4.5V information.
