Title: PECO Sl302x?
Post by: mattstor77 on March 27, 2019, 07:23:38 PM
Hi all I've just acquired a used box of PECO 302 x concrete sleeper flexible track.
I'm aware it's old stock and I was wondering if anyone had used it!
Is it compatible with new track? if so is it compatible with code 55 or 80? There is no reference to this on the paper label.
Thanks in advance

Matt

SL302 should be code 80, SL302f is code 55.  Easy to tell the difference, look at the end of the rail and if it has a "double T" shape half buried in the sleepers then it's code 55, if it has a normal T shape fully on top of the sleepers it's code 80.

It's just old code 80, should be fine with current stuff, think it's even the same product.

What colour is the paper label? Code 80 is blue, Code 55 yellow.
