Atlas N Scale Code 55 12.5" Radius Curved Track – 6-Pack – ATL2014

Atlas N Scale Code 55 12.5" Radius Curved Track – 6-Pack – ATL2014 includes six full-section curved track pieces for building smooth, consistent curves on N scale model railroads. Part of the Atlas N Scale Code 55 track system, each section features fine nickel silver rail with brown ties for realistic, prototypical-looking trackwork.

Atlas specifies that 16 full sections create a complete 360° circle at the 12.5" radius. This means each ATL2014 curved track section provides 22.5° of curvature, while the six pieces included in this package provide a combined 135° of 12.5" radius curvature.

12.5" Radius Full-Section Curved Track

ATL2014 maintains a consistent 12.5" radius throughout each curved section. Its fixed sectional geometry makes it easy to plan predictable curves for mainlines, branch lines, passing sidings and other portions of an N scale railroad.

Each package includes:

• 6 curved track sections
• 12.5" radius
• 22.5° of curvature per section
• 135° of total curvature per 6-pack
• 16 sections required for a complete 360° circle

Understanding 12.5" Radius Track Geometry

The 12.5" measurement describes the radius of the curve, while each individual full section covers 22.5° of a complete circle. Connecting additional sections increases the total angular coverage while maintaining the same 12.5" radius.

With 16 sections forming a complete circle, 4 sections create 90°, 8 sections create 180° and 16 sections create a complete 360° circle.

Broader N Scale Curve Geometry

The 12.5" radius provides a broader curve than the 10" and 11.25" radius sectional curves in the Atlas Code 55 system. Broader curves can provide a more gradual appearance while giving modelers another option for matching track geometry to their available layout space and equipment.

These 12.5" radius sections can be useful for:

• Mainline curves
• Branch lines
• Passing sidings
• Yard approaches
• Industrial and switching layouts
• Staging areas
• Sectional track plans requiring predictable curve geometry

Check Your Equipment's Minimum Radius

Minimum-radius requirements vary between N scale locomotives and rolling stock. Always check the recommended minimum radius for your equipment before designing a track plan around 12.5" radius curves, especially when operating longer locomotives, passenger cars or freight equipment.
