Peco SL-E8351 | Code 83 #5 Turnout - Streamline, Right Hand, Electrofrog | HO Scale

Description

The Peco SL-E8351 is a Code 83 Streamline #5 turnout, right hand, with an Electrofrog (live metal frog) for the smoothest slow-speed running, since there is no dead spot through the frog. It is a compact turnout for yards, industrial spurs and tight spots where a #6 will not fit.

Peco's Code 83 line is modeled on North American railroad track: scaled from A.R.E.A. drawings, NMRA compliant, with authentic tie sizes and spacing, North American frog numbering and fine spike detail. The diverging road follows a 26" (660mm) radius with a 11.4 degree frog angle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it work with my Atlas or Walthers Code 83 track?
Yes. Code 83 is a rail height standard, so Peco Code 83 connects to any other Code 83 HO track with ordinary rail joiners.

Does it need any special wiring?
Yes, a little. An Electrofrog is power routing, so use insulated rail joiners on the two frog rails and feed power to the track on the points (toe) end. A switch machine with contacts, such as the Circuitron Tortoise, can switch frog polarity.

Does it come with a switch machine?
No. It can be thrown by hand, by a ground throw, or by a switch machine such as the Circuitron Tortoise or Smail.

Are rail joiners included?
No. Use Code 83 rail joiners to connect it to the rest of your layout.

Is there a matching turnout?
Yes. See More in This Series below for the other Peco North American style turnouts we carry.
