What is Tracksetta?
TRACKSETTA – OO/N Scale Model Railway Tracklaying Tools These useful tools have been around for many years but are a must-have if you are using flexible track and want to lay it consistently. Available in OO and N Scales as straight and multiple radiuses.
What is the difference between Peco Code 100 and Code 75?
Code 75 shares all of the same technical specifications as Peco Code 100 track, including clearances though the frog area. The only difference between the two systems is the height of the rail. Modellers can join their Code 100 track to Peco Code 75 track by using the conversion joiner SL-112.
What code is Peco Setrack?
100
Peco Setrack (code 100)
What is the difference between PECO Setrack and streamline?
There are two main types of Peco track system: Peco Set-track and Peco Streamline. Set-track consists of a range of rigid curves, straights, crossings and points (turnouts), made to the standard British geometry. Peco Streamline is for the more experienced modeller.
What is the difference between code 80 N Code 55 track?
code 80 rail is tall, too tall to be a realistic representation. that said I used it for my first layout, it was pretty good I just wish I was better at laying track. it also allows pizza cutter wheels. Code 55 rail is more realistic, nice and low.
How do I remove the ballast from my track?
Once all ballasting is completed test the track again as you will have small grains of ballast where they should not be, and will have glue on your track. Small bits of ballast can be carefully removed with a scalpel blade, but take care. PVA glue on your track can also be removed carefully using a knife blade.
Why choose tracksetta?
With Tracksetta, reverse and transition curves can be laid easily and accurately even when working alone. An invaluable aid.
How long does ballasting last?
Ballasting can take a long time, but if done correctly will last for years and will enhance any model railway layout. Badly laid ballast will spoil any layout, and will be hard to remove once applied.
How do you fix a leaky ballast?
Do not water log the ballast and be careful not to wash the small granules away. Once wet, apply a 50-50mix of water and PVA adhesive, again with a small drop of washing up liquid using the eye dropper to the ballast. You should be able to watch the adhesive mix flow and soak into the ballast.
