6 Roadway design
Custom roadway design
Please refer to the following chart for minimum
roadway widths:
Roadway widths (single-/two-lane)
H0 N
Straight areas 50 mm/100 mm 30 mm/60 mm
Curves at least 70 mm/140 mm 45 mm/90 mm
Upward and downward hills
When constructing upward or downward hills or
crests it’s important to round the roadway at the
respective transitions for vehicle control. Upward
hills should not be steeper than 12 % (120 mm
over 1000 mm roadway).
Once you know how the roadways should be rout-
ed you can start.
Sunken method
To integrate FALLER Car System into your existing design the so-called sunken method
may be right for you. Use the Groove Cutter (161669) to customise the routeing of the
contact wire and adapt the flow of traffic to local factors.
Preparation
Our recommendation: Use rigid foam sheets with
a wooden frame for the base frame and use
3 mm thick poplar plywood for streets and other
constructions. This is the maximum distance a
stopping section coil may be from the top of the
roadway. All functional elements can now be in-
stalled directly below the roadway. This will also
reduce the overall weight of your design.
Make the surface of the roadway as smooth as
possible and consider the turning radius of the
vehicle to be used in the width. Longer vehicles
require a wider road, especially for curves, than
cars. The minimum curve radius should therefore
not be less than 150 mm.
Cutting: The Groove Cutter (161669)
is ideal for installing the special con-
tact wire. This small machine features
a slitting cutter which is guided along
the marked path. Cutting the right
groove height and width allows for op-
timal contact wire installation.
Installing contact wire: Press the
contact wire into the groove with a
flat head screwdriver or joiner, ensu-
ring it is correctly seated in the
groove.
Planning: Mark the roadway by outli-
ning it on the plywood and perform a
test run to ensure the roadway is uni-
form. To do so lay out the wire, affix
it with an adhesive strip and test the
route with a vehicle.
