This is the matching curve for Kato's Narrow Gauge Unitrack #4 turnouts. Each piece is a 481mm (19") radius, 15 degree section on 9mm gauge roadbed with tie spacing scaled for HOe, HOn30 and OO-9 models, and the pack gives you four of them.
Use one after a 52-300 or 52-301 turnout to bring the diverging track back parallel, or join several for broad sweeping curves on a narrow gauge layout.

Features
- 15 degree sections match the diverging route of the Kato 52-300 and 52-301 #4 electric turnouts.
- First 15 degree curve in the Narrow Gauge Unitrack line, so you can build sidings and passing loops that line up.
- Tie spacing scaled for narrow gauge models rather than N scale.
- Snaps together with UniJoiners. No nails, glue or ballasting needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many pieces make a full circle?
Each piece is 15 degrees, so 24 pieces (six packs) make a full 360 degree circle.
Why do I need this with the #4 turnout?
The turnout sends the diverging track off at 15 degrees. One of these curves turned the other way brings it back parallel to the main line for a siding or passing track.
Will it join my N scale Unitrack?
Yes, it uses the same 9mm gauge and UniJoiners. The ties are spaced for narrow gauge, so it looks a little different next to N scale track.
