Hi!

I would like to use Marklin Turntable for my C Track layout. Do I just need to buy Marklin 7287 Extension set for connecting the turntable with my C Track layout or do I need to buy Marklin 7287 as well as C to K Track connectors. Please let me know what are the various parts I need to build the connection with my layout.

Thank you very much for your help in advance.

Best regards,

Chris

Hi Chris,

The 7287 set allows you to connect 3x K-tracks to the turntable. You need to purchase a C to K track adaptor in addition to the 7287.

Might be worthwhile building your BW in K track and just use a K to C track adaptor for where it connects to your station area.

It is worth noting that the turntable has recently been discontinued. It may be a sign that Marklin is about to release a C track turntable.


edit: there is also this webpage - https://www.marklin-user...odel/reviews/MR7286.html

You can modify the 7287 connectors for use with C track. It would involve removing the connector tabs on both tracks and just using the rail joiners to connect them together.
You would also need to mount the turntable on an elevated 'frisbee' so it sits at the same height as the C track and extends to the end of the 7287 pieces.
