Wow! The Bachmann plastic track only came with the original battery/RC Big Hauler (1st generation). I don't think they have been made for over a decade. Are you sure he bought it a Sam's or was it off of eBay or a yard sale? You do see the plastic track pop up on eBay now and then. The problem is it only came in ovals (a full circle with 2 straights) so anything you would get would be that. The plastic wheels on the battery Big Hauler will not hold up very long on metal track. He should consider purchasing an Annie or something else.

It could be a New Bright set. They are also battery powered with plastic track (different from Bachmann's). New Bright track also pops up on eBay now and then.
