Please help, about newest Peco code 75 turnout.

[swiftbeam]

Hi,

 

I've just got back from my local MS having bought some fine scale Peco long turnouts, only to see in this months RM Peco are now making a new version of these points. These new turnouts don't have the nasty fish plate type rail joiners in the middle and have rivets on the actual fishplates. 

 

I can't find them on the net anywhere.

 

Can anybody help me find them or know anything about them, I'm right on the edge of starting my first 00 layout in years and really want to use the best looking RTR track.

 

Thanks.

So the points are not ready yet?

Is there an add on the Peco site?

If yes, I can't find it.

The other thread linked to above indicates that they will be in the shops this month with a RRP of £32.50.  They are intended to be used with the new Peco Bullhead flexitrack that has been out for the past year.

 

Copies of Peco adverts have also been posted in that thread, but I'm not sure whether there is any information on the website.

OK, thank you.

 

I'm only days away from buying wood and making base boards, so I'll wait on buying track until this new stuff is in the shops. It'll only take me a week to make the boards and lay the track.

They only make straight large radius left and right points at the moment. They are the same geometry as other large radius streamline OO points (I.e. 1219mm nominal radius, not 1524mm as stated).

 

But no mediums, smalls, slips, crossovers, curved, Y or 3-way points yet.

That's all OK, I'm only needing large left and right turn outs :-)

 

And flexy lengths of course.
