….......---- N Scale Code 55 End of Track Section ---
=========================================

Recently I decided to design some N scale code 55 rail to possibly use for guard rails in N scale crossings I was going to make as they are tricky to make in the center of the crossing along with the isolation gaps that have to be cut in them. Since I had the rail designed I went ahead and designed a short section of track using ME's code and posted the results on one of the train boards. There someone suggested that it could be used as an end of track section.
With that in mind I looked at different variations of end of track sections and copied off of a couple different ones I saw and came up with the following.
The bottom section of track looks wider but isn't. It is just the results of the camera on wide angle. Also it is one of the original sections I designed without tie plates. I added them to the end of track section which is also shown.
Here is a link to the end of track design that I used as reference.... ( HERE ).
I used Fusion 360 (Personal Version) to design the piece and my Ender 3 Pro to print it.

I cut a tie off the 3D printed side and was able to use the Peco rail joiners to join the two pieces of track. I'd also glue them down in place.
