Piko 55227 HO Scale Left Curved Switch BWL R3/R4 A-Track

The Piko 55227 is an HO Scale left curved switch from the PIKO A-Track sectional system, designated BWL. Its geometry moves from R3 to R4 on the inner radius and from R4 to R5 on the outer radius, making it ideal for building wide, sweeping nested curves where two parallel routes bend together. The consistent A-Track design means even complex layouts can be assembled from just a few different section types, keeping planning simple.

The 55227 features a filigree Code 100 rail profile in high-quality nickel silver alloy for reliable electrical contact, set on aging-resistant plastic ties with a dark brown tie strip patterned after wooden thresholds for a realistic look. Push-together rail joiners are factory-formed to grip the rail tightly, and the switch is compatible with most other brands of HO scale track for unlimited expansion. The 55227 is driven by the PIKO 55271 electric switch machine.
