Do you want to have more prototypical looking track?
Then the Railway Laser Lines Sleeper Spacer Tool may just be the perfect little tool that you’re looking for to help you with this task.
The new double-length now has 20 slots, so doing a yard of Peco track should now take even less time as this tool is aimed at speeding up that process. The tool is made from acrylic so will ONLY do straight pieces of track and not designed to go around bends (We do now offer a 400mm tool of thinner acrylic that will allow a certain amount of bending). You will still need to do this manually but hopefully with the use of the sleeper spacer tool, it will give you more time to do these sections.
Once you have cut all the sleepers on the track to individual ones, getting rid of the joining parts altogether, you will need to move the sleepers together and then slide them along to fit within each slot of the spacer tool. You can place the tool within the centre of the rails or alternatively do it on the outer sides, two tools work better on the outer sides to keep them level.
It’s certainly worth testing out how to do this the best way you feel will help you on a spare piece of track.
There are a number of modellers who have done videos on sleeper spacing on YouTube so worth checking these out.
NB: The colour of this sleeper tool will vary from the above image.
