Q. What size is the PECO Code 55 N Scale Double Slip Switch? :?

I understand the PECO Code 55 N Scale "Large" turnout (non-curved) is about a #7 as/ the Fast-Tracks Templates.

Is it, therefore, safe to assume that the PECO Code 55 N-Scale Double Slip corresponds to a #7 as well?

Thanks for the input,
Daniel Menter

Nothing is 'safe' in any scale with PECO (or most other brands as well).

Locate the center point of the crossing - extend the straight legs on one side along the center line out a goodly distance and measure the ratio - that's safe.

I estimate I have about 5 pounds of coupler springs somewhere in the vicinity of my workbench.
