Atlas N Scale Code 55 13.75" Radius Half-Section Curved Track – 6-Pack – ATL2017 includes six half-section curved track pieces designed for making precise adjustments to 13.75" radius curves on N scale model railroads. Part of the Atlas N Scale Code 55 track system, each section features fine nickel silver rail with simulated brown wood ties for realistic, prototypical-looking trackwork.
Each half section maintains the same 13.75" radius as the corresponding full-section curve while providing half of its angular length. The half-section geometry gives modelers greater flexibility when a standard full curved section would add too much curvature to the track arrangement.
13.75" Radius Half-Section Curved Track
The term half section refers to the angular length of each curved track piece—not half of the radius. ATL2017 remains a true 13.75" radius curve, allowing it to be combined with full-section 13.75" radius track while maintaining consistent curve geometry.
Each package includes:
- 6 curved track sections
- 13.75" radius
- Half-section curve geometry
- Fine nickel silver rail
- Simulated brown wood ties
Fine-Tune 13.75" Radius Curves
Half-section curves provide additional flexibility when building with fixed sectional track. When a full curved section creates too much angular change, ATL2017 allows a smaller adjustment while maintaining the same 13.75" radius throughout the curve.
These sections can be especially useful for:
- Fine-tuning sectional track geometry
- Completing curves with specific angular requirements
- Adjusting approaches to turnouts and crossings
- Connecting curved and straight track arrangements
- Mainline and branch line curves
- Passing sidings
- Yard approaches
- Station approaches
- Staging areas
Same 13.75" Radius – Shorter Curved Section
ATL2017 should not be confused with a smaller-radius curve. A half section does not reduce the 13.75" radius. Instead, the track follows the same 13.75" radius geometry while covering a shorter portion of the curve than the corresponding full-section track.
This allows full and half sections of the same radius to be combined when more precise sectional track geometry is needed.
Broader N Scale Curve Geometry
The 13.75" radius provides a broader curve than Atlas's 10", 11.25" and 12.5" radius Code 55 sectional curves. These half sections provide additional flexibility for working with that broader radius while making smaller adjustments to the overall track arrangement.
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 13.75" radius curves, particularly when operating longer locomotives, passenger cars or freight equipment.
