RMweb Gold Roy Langridge Posted September 23, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 23, 2017 no IL-115 Oops, read your post as code 83. Sorry. Roy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Freeman Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Have received the appalling news from Peco Technical Advice Bureau that Code 82 IL-115 has been discontinued! C&L no longer list it either so we will have to make do with code 83 - a retrograde step in my opinion.

Fluo66 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Maybe they have some in stock: http://www.kbscale.com/track-parts.html RA01 - Code 82 Rail, Peco IL-115 (Pack of six 36" lengths) for £9.00 I would ask them before ordering. I have no experiences with this seller. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 As stated Peco have stopped making it, nearest is probably their Code 83. The EMGS still list Code 82 rail for sale to members, I'm not sure if this is sourced from Peco however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EMGS still list Code 82 rail for sale to members, I'm not sure if this is sourced from Peco however. I don't think they have any either, I did look as I am a member. I would imagine they would get it from C&L but as he doesn't currently list it either, I suspect it won't re-appear. I have now gathered in adequate supplies (with more to follow) of code 83.

robmanchester Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Hi Stephen, Bit late replying on this one - only just seen it. My reason for using Peco IL-115 rail was that the head width was to scale for UK 1:76 layouts ie it fits the same track gauges as code 75 BH for C&L etc. Surely the code 83 rail that is available from Peco is from their US line track range therefore the head will be narrower. Am I missing something ? Rob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium BR60103 Posted March 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 21, 2018 I measured the code 83 head as .031" wide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
