Peco N gauge track templates

[Tony]

I am thinking of building a small terminus based layout in an extremely small space (to fit into a very small flat). I need templates for the points, Peco code 55, to help with planning. Does anyone know of a web site from which these can be downloaded?
The Peco site says that they are downloadable but I can't get them.

Try a quick phone call/email to Peco explaining the problem. I have a set of the 00 version and they are very useful.

Peco Tel. is 01297 21542 or email: [email protected]

Best wishes,

I have just printed out the 3 way point in code 55, no problem. Unfortunately it is the only point lisited in code 55. However, as long as the radius is the same, I don't see any problem in using the Code 80 versions. An email or phone call to Peco might still be a good idea.

Thanks John,
I did eventually manage to print out what I needed from the Peco site. I have also got my hands on the real things with some fast, friendly, service from the Paignton Model Shop. I had a 5' x 1' baseboard made by my local Handyman shop. I intend to make a start tonight on cutting and laying the first bits of track, I have to locate the points and their motors so I will not be rushing it.
I went to a model railway exhibition in Plymouth a few weeks ago. I can state categorically that the bug is catching! Basing my layout on one seen there; a GW country terminus with cassette storage. I may post some photos of progress over the winter.

Great you've managed to sort out the trackwork. Look forward to more details of yout layout.

Best wishes,
