Roco 42596 H0 – K15 Track Crossing RocoLine with rubber bedding

The K15 track crossing by Roco in H0 scale (1:87) is a basic yet essential element of the RocoLine system with rubber bedding. It allows two tracks to intersect at a 15° angle without enabling any change of direction. It’s often used in through stations, parallel track groups, or more complex layout arrangements.

Technical specifications:

• Type: crossing K15
• Length: 230 mm
• Crossing angle: 15°
• Rail profile height: 2.1 mm (Code 83)

Usage tips:

This non-motorized crossing is part of the RocoLine system with rubber bedding. The base may require trimming at connection points – included templates make it easy to mark and cut accurately for a clean fit.

RocoLine tracks with rubber bedding – flexible and functional

RocoLine tracks with rubber bedding are featured in current Roco starter sets and are also available individually. Their wide, flexible base with realistic ballast texture ensures both a stable setup and visually appealing layout – whether temporary or permanent.

Individual track sections can be combined with RocoLine tracks without bedding to design layouts with maximum flexibility. Ballasted tracks are perfect for use on the floor (including carpets) and are equally suitable for scenic model railway boards.

Due to the scale-profile geometry of the bedding, overlaps may occur at connection points – especially around turnouts. In such cases, the bedding must be trimmed. Cutting templates included with RocoLine sets help ensure precise trimming.
