Located in what is known as Hollywood’s “working backlot” – Burbank, California – On Track is freeway-close for set designers, prop masters and costumers in search of athletic equipment, memorabilia and apparel suited for television, film and print productions focusing on a track and field environment.

On Track has ready access to both modern and vintage equipment, as well as experts well-versed in the history of the sport, to provide authenticity to your next shoot. With adequate notice, technical advisement can be contracted for projects involving athletic performances – a service that has proven invaluable from both a time-saving and safety standpoint.
