Description
PECO STREAMLINE N CODE 80 CATCH TURNOUT, LEFT HAND The purpose of a Catch Turnout is to derail a vehicle before it rolls out of a siding or branch line on to a main line. This ever-popular trackage system for N offers a choice of either wooden or concrete type sleeper flexible track and a wide range of turnouts and crossings in both Insulfrog and Electrofrog types. Suitable for all makes of N Gauge trains and fully compatible with PECO Setrack. Technical Specification: Length: 86mm Why use catch points? Railways around the worlduse catch points (referred to as "derails" in the US), to protect main lines from unbraked runaway vehicles. Deliberately derailing a freight wagon sounds drastic, but is infinitely preferable to allowing it to stray into the path of an oncoming train. They were thus commonly found at the exits of yards. Also used at intervals up long gradients to prevent uncoupled vehicles running all the way back down the hill. Use them on your own layout to acheive prototypical levels of details, or as convient way to stop your trains.
