Atlas N Scale Code 55 #10 Right Turnout – ATL2055

Atlas N Scale Code 55 #10 Right Turnout – ATL2055 combines the realistic appearance of Atlas Code 55 track with exceptionally broad #10 turnout geometry for smooth, prototypical-looking N scale trackwork. Featuring fine nickel silver rail and simulated brown wood ties, this right-hand turnout is especially well suited to mainlines, passing sidings, crossovers, station approaches and other locations where broad, gradual routing is desired.

The #10 turnout geometry provides a significantly gentler diverging route than smaller-numbered turnouts, making ATL2055 an excellent choice for layouts with enough space to prioritize flowing trackwork, longer equipment and a more prototypical mainline appearance.

#10 Right-Hand Turnout Geometry

ATL2055 is a #10 right-hand turnout. When approaching the turnout from the single-track end, one route continues through the turnout while the diverging route branches toward the right.

A #10 turnout has considerably broader geometry than more compact #5 or #7 turnouts. The diverging route changes direction more gradually, creating a long, flowing track arrangement particularly well suited to mainline-oriented applications.

Where to Use a #10 Turnout

The broad geometry of ATL2055 makes it an excellent choice for N scale layouts where space allows more gradual track routing. Applications can include:

• Mainline turnouts
• Passing sidings
• Mainline crossovers
• Passenger station approaches
• Freight yard approaches
• Staging yard entrances
• Branch line junctions
• Routes handling longer locomotives and rolling stock
• Locations where broad, flowing track geometry is preferred

#10 Turnout vs. #5 and #7 Turnouts

Turnout numbers describe the geometry through the frog and diverging route. In general, the higher the turnout number, the more gradual the divergence and the more space the turnout requires.

A #5 turnout provides relatively compact geometry that works well in yards and industrial areas. A #7 provides a broader transition suited to a mixture of mainline and secondary track applications. The #10 geometry of ATL2055 provides an even longer and more gradual diverging route, making it particularly attractive for mainline trackwork and locations where realistic, flowing track geometry is a priority.

Excellent for Longer Equipment

The broad #10 geometry makes ATL2055 especially useful on routes handling long passenger cars, modern freight equipment and longer-wheelbase locomotives. The gradual diverging route helps create smoother-looking movement through the turnout while giving mainline trackwork a more prototypical appearance.

Modelers should still verify the requirements of their specific locomotives and rolling stock when designing a track plan.

Atlas N Scale Code 55 Track

Atlas N Scale Code 55 track is designed for model railroaders seeking a finer and more prototypical track appearance. The system features fine nickel silver rail with simulated brown wood ties and includes a complete selection of track components for constructing detailed N scale layouts.

Atlas offers Code 55 flex track, straight track, curved track, turnouts and crossings, allowing modelers to construct a complete track plan using compatible components throughout the layout.

Realistic Code 55 Rail Profile

The finer Code 55 rail profile gives N scale trackwork a more realistic appearance than heavier traditional rail profiles. Combined with Atlas's simulated brown wood ties, ATL2055 provides an excellent foundation for detailed ballast, weathering and surrounding trackside scenery.
