Mounting Peco Turnout Motors

View the original web page

All trackwork on my layout uses Peco equipment. I like the quality of the track and the reasonable price. It is also widely available. There is a fairly wide range of sectional track though I rarely use it. I use Code 80 track. The track I use is Peco SL-300. This is flexible track that comes in 3'(914mm) lengths. Due to the limited space I am using the short turnouts in the yard. The left and right handed turnouts are ST-6 and ST-5. The point motors are PL-10. I also use the Peco foam underlay. I bought all these from eHattons. The prices were low (lower when VAT is deducted and the exchange rate was good) and shipping to Oz is cheap. It takes a little over a week to deliver.
