... marks, checking the far end of the exit curve to be sure. This introduced a slight mismatch in the crossover road, cured with a few mm of final snaking on the upper turnout. (Generally it would be easier to have a fixed large radius for the main road of the lower turnout, then make transition to the exit curve beyond.)

I watched through it a couple of times then had a go. I have a bit of tidying up to do, and I'll have a play with the increased track centres as well, plus I want to move the crossover to the right a bit so a chance to do it all again!

... fundamental error in the way that the DXF files are generated. Rails are drawn as 6mm straight lines. Which means a 1m long curve comprises 664 individual lines, rather than 4 curves. Fortunately sleepers are drawn as 4 straight lines, but they could be drawn as a rectangle. This all means that the DXF file is horrendously big.

... I enjoy the challenge, and so far have made (in my humble opinion) quite a nice start. I very much appreciate your continued support, and I also understand your feelings with regards to novices like myself biting off more than they can chew. Personally, if I don't push myself, then I won't learn, so the challenge is welcome.

... it is short and distinctive. As you say there are a great many 00 variations and derivatives, so 00-SF could have been seen as just one more of many. 4-SF stands out as different. 4-SF also makes the 4mm/ft scale explicit, where some of the other options have 00 models running on track modelled at other scales.

The rails are still in the same place. regards, Martin. posted: 14 Oct 2015 07:08 from: Hayfield Martin I am warming to 4-FS as a name, though still use 00sf when I fell its appropriate.

274. Straight Switches
... I've just dug it out. It gives me some confidence that it can be done in smaller scales but I will want it to be fully functional in 1:32 scale so I may investigate using brass rod and countersunk 10 or 12BA screws to lock the bars to the switch blades. Insulating the stretcher rods should not be too difficult although the Caledonian's predilection for boarding and boxing in point rodding in the four and six foot way would help to disguise any method used.

No sign of any heel plate below the joint, and, judging by the prominence of these in pictures showing North British switches, such a plate would be pretty obvious if present. I suspect, therefore, that heel plates didn't find their way into Caledonian practice. I ...
