PECO is a UK-based manufacturer of model railway accessories, especially trackwork, based at Pecorama, Beer in South Devon, England.
The primary product ranges are its track systems. Other product lines include PECO Trackside – building kits and scenic items in gauges O, OO, TT and N – and a small range of rolling stock and locomotives, both kits and ready-to-run, for gauges N and OO-9.
There are two main types of PECO track system: PECO Set-track and PECO Streamline. Set-track consists of a range of rigid curves, straights, crossings and points (turnouts), made to the standard British geometry. It is similar to the track components supplied with train-sets, and is designed for the needs of less-experienced modellers, or those experienced modellers who do not want to spend a lot of time building trackwork. However, where part of a desired layout cannot be built using Set-track parts, Streamline components can be utilised as required.
PECO Streamline is for the more experienced modeller.The range includes a wider variety of points and crossings, at different radii. In 00 gauge it is available with a standard flat bottom rail profile and, since 2019 bullhead profile. Historically points and crossings have been available in the Electrofrog range, with live frogs, and their Insulfrog range, with plastic insulated frogs. Since 2019 Electrofrog and Insulfrog are being phased out and replaced with their Unifrog range. Unifrog points have an electrically isolated metal frog, with the option to energise it via a wire connection.
