Ganzzüge mit Spezialladungen sind ein Merkmal der modernen Eisenbahn. Alle Peco-Wagen verfügen über freilaufende Räder mit Steckachsen. Die ELC-Kupplung ist zwar mit den standardmäßigen N-Spur-Kupplungen kompatibel, hält jedoch einen realistischen Abstand zwischen Fahrzeugen und ermöglicht die Verwendung des elektromagnetischen Entkopplers PL-25 zum Fernentkuppeln.

Alle Eisenbahnunternehmen verfügten über einen eigenen Bestand an Fahrzeugen für den Transport von Gütern und Gütern innerhalb ihres Streckennetzes und bei Bedarf auch auf die Strecken anderer Unternehmen. Diese wurden bei der Verstaatlichung in die British Railways integriert; Einige von ihnen sollten im Zuge der Sektorisierung noch einmal neu gestaltet werden, da das Netzwerk darauf vorbereitet war, wieder in Privatbesitz überzugehen.

The NEW Laser-Cut Victorian Houses

Alongside almost any railway there will be houses, and in model form it will be the low-relief buildings that will be of particular interest to modellers, especially as a feature along the backscene. We have been working hard to develop a new range of low-relief house fronts and backs, as well as the full building and we start off here with a typical semi-detached brick house typical of the Victorian period in Britain. You will be familiar with this style of house as they are still everywhere in the UK!

Our kits have been carefully designed for ease of assembly and feature some lovely detail. The texture of the laser-cut surface replicates the brick courses and slate tiles perfectly. Detailing around the windows and doors and the inclusion of guttering and downpipes is noteworthy, as are the curtains in the window and the provision of additional dormers (house backs kit) and bay windows (house front kit), plus the optional pavement around the base. The dormers, bay windows and pavement are included in the LK-208 full house kit too!

Several kits can be combined to create a terrace of houses, so commonly seen in locations around the country in relation to the railways. A row of house backs alongside the railway and against the backscene, a row of house fronts high on a hill above the station, or a street of semi-detached houses in a town scene, the possibilities are endless! The kits will need painting so the modeller can personalise each one, so necessary when you create a terrace of buildings. No two houses would ever be the same. Acrylic paints are best. We demonstrate this in our new PECO TV video.

The NEW West Highland Line Station Building Laser-Cut Kit

The NEW West Highland laser-cut wood kits, all based on buildings on the existing West Highland Line extension between Fort William and Mallaig in Scotland. In fact Arisaig station was the inspiration for these attractive models, a delightful station on a very scenic and popular route, famous for many reasons but likely to be moist memorable for its role in the Harry Potter films. It is a route that has become a firm favourite with modellers so these kits will certainly be welcomed by many and be the inspiration for a number of new layout builds for sure.

Code 55

Use SL-310 metal joiners and SL-1208 joining sleepers. Use SL-311 insulating joiners to create isolated track sections (if using DCC control these are not required).

One of the great advantages of TT:120 is that the 12mm gauge track correctly scales out as standard (4' 8.5") gauge, as used all over Britain's railway network. The ingenious rail section of PECO code 55 combines strength and durability with a highly realistic appearance – In TT:120 the visible height of the rail correctly represents 113lb flat bottom rail. The flexible sleeper base is detailed with fine wood grain and spikes through British Railways’ BR1 baseplates under the rails, a combination that continues to be widely used on Britain’s railways.

Technical Specifications:

Length 180mm
Frog angle 11.25 degrees

Designed for modellers to give access to awkward corners of the layout, the NEW PECOscene Pro-Grass Detailer Applicator is a great addition to the range. Featuring a comfortable handle to hold and a long, slender neck to reach into cramped areas of the layout with ease, the applicator makes the addition of static grass around structures and track so much easier to achieve. Conveniently, the applicator is also supplied with two interchangeable sieve heads - one flared, the other straight, both of which can accommodate up to 6mm static grass fibres, and give the modeller options when deciding how much coverage is required. Powered by a 9v battery (not included), the applicator switch also lights up to indicate when power is on, a useful reminder! 

Our 'Shows You How' Booklet No 13 Detailing the Landscape and Youtube video clips show the effects that can be created.

 

Enter the wonderful world of railway modelling and explore this charming and worthwhile hobby, with modelling enthusiast Chris Ford.

Railway modelling is a lifestyle hobby enjoyed by millions of people from all walks of life, including famous stars like Sir Rod Stewart, Jools Holland, Pete Waterman and even Hollywood A-listers such as Tom Hanks. As a mainstream leisure activity, it encompasses a huge array of artistic, creative and technical aptitudes. It is incredibly rewarding and fulfilling, a great way to learn lots of new skills, and can be enjoyed equally at home or by participating in a local club or group. But knowing where to begin and how to navigate one’s way through the myriad of wondrous things the hobby offers can often be overwhelming to both newcomers and experienced modellers alike.

Hence, this brand new publication which takes a candid and sometimes humorous look at the hobby today, guiding the reader through the multitude of options and choices with which he or she is faced. From what size of models to choose? Where to house a layout in the home? What controllers do I use? Where to get more advice? Should I join a club? In fact, all the information one needs to integrate this ever-fascinating hobby into one’s busy life and including examples of many inspirational model railways built by hobbyists of all persuasions.

The author, Chris Ford, is a lifelong enthusiast who has built layouts in various scales and gauges and is a frequent contributor to Railway Modeller.

This track models the most common form of concrete sleepering in use in Britain today, with flat bottom rail. PECO Streamline O Gauge Code 143 - Concrete Flexible Track.

Unifrog

Verwenden Sie Metallschienenverbinder SL-310 und Verbindungsschwellen SL-1208.

Einer der großen Vorteile von TT:120 besteht darin, dass die 12-mm-Spurweite korrekt auf die Standardspurweite (4 Fuß 8,5 Zoll) übertragen werden kann, wie sie im gesamten britischen Eisenbahnnetz verwendet wird. Der ausgeklügelte Schienenabschnitt des PECO-Codes 55 kombiniert Festigkeit und Haltbarkeit mit einem Äußerst realistisches Erscheinungsbild – Bei TT:120 stellt die sichtbare Höhe der Schiene korrekt die 113-Pfund-Schiene dar, die bei britischen Eisenbahnen weiterhin weit verbreitet ist. Die Weichen entsprechen den NEM-Standards und die Geometrie mit mittlerem Radius entspricht weitgehend dem B6-Standard der British Railways .
