Code 83 rerailer
Posted by subman on Saturday, June 13, 2020 9:24 AM

Does Peco make a code 83 rerailer that fits permanently on the layout? I am not referring to their SL37. I know Atlas makes them but do  not know if they are a match for Peco track. Could you tell me if they are. With my dexterity every straight track needs one.

Thanks

The only rerailers I know of are Atlas and Kato (Unitrack). Of course, there were the Tyco and other trainset rerailers back in the day.

I did not find a code 83 rerailer in the Peco line.

For what it is worth, the Kato rerailer actually works very well, but it is really not compatible with any other track system.

I have a spare Atlas Code 83 ATL519 rerailer and it looks like it would mate up pretty good to a spare Peco Code 83 curved turnout.  I have an ATL519 in a siding (Atlas Flex Track) where I put cars and locos on my layout and it works very nice.
