Standard curve section number 2 radius. 438mm 17 1/4in radius. 22.5 degree curve, 16 required to form a complete circle.
Equivalent to Hornby R606 and Bachmann 36-605 2nd radius curves..
Number 2 is the standard curve radius used for OO train sets and the minimum radius which large locomotives, coaches and wagons will successfully travel around. Almost all British ready-to-run models are designed to navigate no.2 radius curves as supplied. Peco, Bachmann and Hornby standard points use no.2 radius for the curved arm of the point, allowing a point can be substituted for one standard curve to create a siding. The standard curve is also used with a point to bring the diverging track back to parallel with the straight route.
Peco track uses durable and corrosion resistant nickel-silver rail for long lasting performance.
Peco Setrack track sections are fully compatable with Hornby and Bachmann track and are supplied with fishplates already fitted at both ends, ready for attachment to other track sections.
