Hi I will be building a layout which I have got a track plan, almost done. But I also want to build first a test track for me to check locos on. It really needs to have points the same as Peco ones. Is there a template on here that is the same as a Peco 7mm point. I do not want to use Peco as the test track will also be for testing out my track building and scenery etc. Thanks Peter |

Hi Peter, Welcome to Templot Club. There is a download file for templates matching the Peco 0 Gauge turnouts in this 4-year-old topic: topic 722 - message 5690 They are for GOG-F (32mm gauge), matching Peco track. I understand from your RMweb topic that you are intending to use 0-MF (31.5mm), so these won't be an exact match. I'm a bit puzzled why you want these? Geometrically they are distorted in order to use the same V-crossing base mouldings for both hands. For handbuilt track you would do much better with an ordinary A-7 turnout. Below is Peco upper, A-7 in 0-MF lower: 2_301634_370000000.png regards, Martin. |

Thanks that will be of great use. It is just to test the locos I build for sale will run through Peco points. I may well do the test track in 32mm. My layout will be 31.5 throughout, and either A6 or B6 I want to build the test track not only as a test piece for my locos but as a test for my track building and scenery. Peter |
