Track Compatibility

In order to provide some useful information I’m planning to put a short piece on our web site seeking to provide a clear and unequivocal position about running ACE Trains on Peco track. The following is a first draft and I would welcome any comments to further enhance its value to would be customers.

“ACE wheels have a back to back of 27.5 mm with slightly reduced flange depths than other coarse scale model railway manufacturers. This makes them suitable for most proprietary two and three rail tracks including tubular tinplate styles and Peco’s range of codes 124 bullhead, 143 flat bottom and SM 32 two rail track.

Running ACE locomotives, coaches and freight stock produced since 2008 on 124 bullhead, 143 flatbottom and SM 32 two rail track should present no problem as the flange wheel depth should not rub against the chair bottom.

With Peco manufactured points some adjustments will be necessary to remove the check rail as the point is no longer produced with an adjustable screw. Railway modellers may prefer to build their own points to their specifications using Peco’s standard point parts.

ACE locomotives, coaches and freight stock manufactured before 2008 has been produced to a coarse scale standard and is designed for three rail running”.
