Charm of N Scale

Long formation trains!

One of the best features of N scale is the possibility of enjoying prototypical, long formation trains such as high speed express trains. Even with limited space, trains of 10-20 coaches can be achieved.

KATO N Scale components

3 elements to run

In order to run N gauge the above three elements are required.

Head light · Tail light on!
Realistic and smooth running.

Why KATO UNITRACK is ideal for building both your permanent and temporary layouts

the unitrack advantage

Elegant in design and function

The Uni-joiner is the basis for KATO UNITRACK's worry-free design. A removable connector clip, the Uni-joiner can be replaced inthe unfortunate event that a piece breaks or fails (unlike other snap    tracks where the entire section will have to replaced), and can be easily swapped out  for wired uni-joiners or insulated uni-joiners for more advanced layout wiring techniques.KATO UNITRACK uses a special alloy of nickel silver to prevent tarnising and reduces the frequency of cleaning that is required.

If you're an occasional modeler who only pulls out the train set on holidays, that means you don't need to worry about your rails rusting away in the package! Likewise, if you operate your trains on a daily basis, you'll have to clean your track less often and have fewer instances of lost conductivity!

The Unitrack Features

DC, 2-Rail system

One of the biggest benefits of using KATO UNITRACK is the variety of track styles to choose from - with various types of single and double track including viaduct and pier sections for runnning elevated trains and even street tracks, complete with compatible road sections and pre-built structures for making city scenes!

All KATO UNITRACK components are inter-compatible within the same scale -meaning it's a "snap" to link up single track pieces to double track pieces, to elevated viaduct pieces, or even between the new street track sections. Your only limit is your imagination!

The basics of UNITRACK can be achieved with single track pieces. The standard straight is 248mm with 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 length straight also available. 315mm Radius (R315) is your standard curve with 6 inner curves and 2outer curves also available too as are buffer stops and adjustable track.

#6 Turnouts R(L)

Turnouts, crossings and crossovers make your model railway more interesting. They are indispensable at stations, sidings and engine sheds.

Double Tracks

Ground level

Unitrack double track items are perfect for replicating modern scenes with pre-cast concrete sleepers (ties) and slabs. On a curve, there is inbuilt "cant" (small incline) so that trains realistically lean inwards when travelling. These sections are really easy to set up and put away as well.

Curves on double tracks is superelevated-inclined inward. The rail bed with inclined rails  is marked ➧. Connecting curves with Easement tracks at the ➧ will form un inclined curve.

Easement track R

Can be connected to the rail bed end of varrious kinds of single or double tracks without double cirve tracks.

Easement track L

Flat side

Superelevatedside

Can be connected to the rail bed end, formed with inclined angle and marked with ➧ , of double curve tracks or Easement tracks by matching their ends with ➧.

KATO offers a variety of pieces and turnouts in very small size which allows you build layout less than A2 size (325mm x573mm). 
Also many of options of railway models to play with. One of recommendation is the Pocket Line series has improved mechanism, which delivering a better driving experience with great slow speed running. This series is the entry point for beginner-level modelers who are looking for a fun and affordable hobby that is not limited by the possibility of expansion.
