Manufacturer description

PECO Streamline OO/HO CODE 75

Turnout, Large Radius, Right Hand

Peco Streamline Code 75 track meets the standards of enthusiasts who prefer to run trains on scale height rail. Today most manufacturers' wheels are suitable for use on Code 75 track but some vintage models may have flanges which are too deep to clear the rail fixings. Code 75 can be easily combined with code 100 track by using the SL-113 Transition Track. The wide range of turnouts and crossings in this series includes every type, and the geometry of this range has been cleverly designed to make it easy to build convenient, complex and aesthetically pleasing formations using combinations of small, medium and large radius turnouts and crossings. Layout plans suggestions can be found in our publications ‘Track Plans for Layouts to Suit all Locations’ (Ref PM-202), ‘60 Plans for Small Railways’ (Ref no PB-3), and ‘Track Plans for Various Locations’ (Ref no PB-66).For more details on Electrofrog turnouts, see our Wiring the Layout publications Nos 4 and 21.

Catalogue listing

PECO Streamline large‑radius right‑hand turnout, model SL‑E188, is a 258 mm long piece of Code 75 track designed for OO/HO scale model railways. It has a frog angle of 12 degrees and a curve radius of 1524 mm, providing a gentle, realistic bend for right‑hand running.

The turnout is supplied with nickel‑silver conducting rail joiners (SL‑110) and insulated rail joiners (SL‑111) specifically for PECO Code 75 track, and uses chemically blackened mild‑steel track‑fixing pins (SL‑14) to secure the layout unobtrusively. It is intended for use with PECO Streamline turnouts and crossings, and can be combined with Code 100 track by means of the SL‑113 transition track.

PECO notes that most modern model wheels clear Code 75 rail, though some vintage models with deep flanges may require adjustment. Layout‑planning guidance is available in PECO publications such as “Track Plans for Layouts to Suit all Locations” (ref PM‑202) and “60 Plans for Small Railways” (ref PB‑3).
