hayfield Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Trump-et & crumpet, the food of 24hour News. I'm enjoying Peco bullhead track and points already in 0 gauge, so as far as 00 is concerned it's a case of forgeddabowdit.

autocoach Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I'll still have to wait for a medium single slip left before I can rebuild and relay my current Padstow. It was a signature configuration for the North Cornwall Railway goods shed trackage. I suspect the potential of real competition from DCC Concepts got them moving with haste usually unknown for PECO. Speaking of which, Richard Johnson has been rather quiet about his plans for the last few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big pat on the back for Peco I will not be buying any as I prefer to make my own to fit the location though and more importantly get enjoyment from building them Edited November 27, 2016 by hayfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachmann Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I wonder if the geometry is similar to Peco Code 75 or Code 83 or even something else. Again, not a buyer any longer but interested for all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not a buyer any longer but interested for all that. I read on Facebook this morning (Railway Modeller page I think) that it matches code 75 and code 100.

bertiedog Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Nice to see that Peco are not delaying the Points any more, but still the track first, then 2017 for points, and work on a layout starts with points Have they given a date for the track being distributed to the shops? please keep up the news, as it has proved impossible to overcome mobility to get to the show, so rely on reports like this.

coachmann Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 A release date for said turnout would be useful to a friend of mine who is on the point (ugh) of building a new layout... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold martin_wynne Posted November 26, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 26, 2016 The turnout in the picture looks to be a hand-built mock-up. It wouldn't be wise to hold your breath -- there are 13 months until the end of 2017. Perhaps a release at Warley next year? Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junctionmad Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 (edited) Looking at the peco plain track in the flesh at warley , the chair detail looks far less detailed then the " addvertising " brochure pictures. But it's still a good representation. No idea of retail pricing The point is at least a year away According to peco Edited November 26, 2016 by Junctionmad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I will be buying the Peco points along with the Peco BH track, as I am about 6 months away from starting my new layout and the BH will only be used in sidings, only about two years later than planned, but barn roofs and walls don't mend themselves.....It looks far better than anything RTL available to date (bar C&L if you have the money), and will probably almost certainly be cheaper than DCCC, given the exchange rate now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium melmerby Posted November 26, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 26, 2016 (edited) The Peco B/H point at Warley: Keith N.B. it was black whilst the track was brown and it had a different texture, so probably not the finished article!

2750Papyrus Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 The track looked good and robust as well. Track apparently in production and will be shipped to dealers in a couple of weeks. Points Easter 2017ish but depends on how tooling turns out. Solenoids will clip underneath as currently. Prices will be higher than existing range due to complexity of tooling - not sure they have been fixed yet. . Looks very good! I commented that we had been waiting a long time for this and response was that it would not have been possible to make tooling previously.
