RMweb Gold martin_wynne Posted November 16, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 16, 2009 Peco 0 Gauge Turnouts in Templot (Bullhead -- I don't have a flat-bottom turnout to measure, but I assume the geometry is the same.) These turnouts have a long entry straight to the V-crossing, so that the same moulded base can be used for both LH and RH turnouts, and also for the diamond-crossing. The V-crossing angle is 8 degrees (1:7.12 RAM), and to get the best match to the rails I used a GWR 9ft curved switch. These templates are accurate for the rail alignments and can be used for Peco footprint substitution, but are not recommended for actual construction. The rail ends correspond to the crossover mid-point for 80mm track centres. The timbering is very close, but not a perfect match. I added the silly bent timber which Peco put on the exit to their turnouts. More discussion and file download from: Peco 0 Gauge . regards, Martin.
