642. Goods loops
... topic: 3464 Goods loops posted: 30 Jul 2019 09:39 from: KeithArmes A friend is planning on building Grafham station on the MR Kettering- Huntingdon line. The running line is single and the goods loop is also a single line. As a 10ft way is not needed for PW workers safety, would a standard 6ft way have been used. Keith Armes 2116_300438_200000000.png posted: 30 Jul 2019 10:25 from: Ariels Girdle Midland standards were published in an early MRJ. From memory, all goods loops were supposed to be greater than 6ft posted: 30 Jul 2019 10:40 from: Martin Wynne Hi Keith, If it was just a running loop it's more likely to be at 6ft way on a single line. If it was a working part of the goods yard, used for loading vehicles, etc., then it needs to be at 10ft way. Given that there is only one short siding and a large area marked "Goods Yard", that use seems very possible. But that doesn't mean that it complied ...

... topic: 2770 Problems with updated templot posted: 1 Nov 2015 10:30 from: madscientist Updated yesterday to latest version I run under a Windows 7 parallels box on a Mac I notice two issues I do t think I've seen before 1. Lots of drop down menus have" extra" blank spaces ie a menu item would have 1 blank clickable space above and below. Maybe this is by design 2. The other strange thing, is the right click, menu( IE the one with X& M( make the template etc). Now pops up at the extreme left of the screen, it doesn't seem to be movable. I often have desktop widgets there and the menu appears under everything( that's correct) Can that menu be customised as to where it pops up, on a big 27" mac the menu often ends up miles away from the application window Dave Last edited on 1 Nov 2015 10:32 by madscientist posted: 1 Nov 2015 11:16 from: Martin Wynne madscientist wrote: I notice two issues ...

So the next TDV update is unlikely to contain any new features, but will hopefully have a bit more explanation of some of the existing ones. regards, Martin. posted: 7 Oct 2011 10:44 from: Alan McMillan Martin Wynne wrote: With today's TDV update (Build# 4309) I feel that the core functionality in TDV is now complete.

649. Crossovers
... the TS side whereas I wanted it on the MS side (I hope I've got these the right way around). I concluded that the notch and maybe also the peg positions were driving this behaviour and by playing around with their positions I finally achieved what I wanted. Surely there must be an easier way of doing this. While the crossover positions were going wrong, I undid (left arrow) the changes and they disappeared. However, when I looked at the storage box list, the same crossover was defined about 10 times!! I deleted the duplicates with the storage box delete button. BTW, the storage box is for "Midland Central" even though I saved it with a different name.

... topic: 3484 Round type of GWR 2 bolt chairs (4 mm scale) posted: 14 Aug 2019 13:30 from: Hayfield During a chat with Phil today he told me he has unearthed some of the earlier GWR rounded 2 bolt chairs that the GWR used on the concrete sleepers (and I guess elsewhere). C&L now sell the squarer type so whilst stocks last there are some available now from C&L. posted: 31 May 2020 10:56 from: Graham Long Hi I am a little confused about the new C&L chairs. The wording on the website description maybe a bit confusing but I read it as, their new 2 bolt chairs were used until 1926 at which time GWR came up with a 3 bolt design for use on concrete pots. The GWR must have continued using 2 bolt as it is my understanding that the two bolt pattern was used into BR days I have read elsewhere that the C&L were an earlier type, pre 1900, and used for 95 pound rail before ...
... fill it with a crossover, forgetting about the actual shape of what was in that position in the garden. posted: 9 Feb 2009 13:16 from: Nigel Brown Hi Geoff Yes, for simplicity I was assuming you could derive the second track from the first. However, it's only a bit more work (and possibly for accuracy a good idea anyway), to measure the position and angle of each end point of the second track relatives to the corresponding end point of the first track. cheers Nigel posted: 10 Feb 2009 11:47 from: Andy B You could try just 1 or 2 photos that capture the whole formation, then use GIMP (search the forum for Martin's examples of its use) to manipulate the pictures. Should be easy to set the transformation needed, as you can take a few exact measurements to check it.

... to have complicated track work to keep to existing space). As Martin says- I cannot understand why people wait until there's a train in the way before taking photos of the track. Below the photo I have a rough Templot outline of what I expected to find and also a small 1920's map extract. Any opinions on this would be appreciated. It's either I find a solution or I take tranquilisers.Derek Attachment: attach_2154_2740_strangetrackbogha llshed.jpg 668 Last edited on 23 Sep 2015 17:34 by DerekStuart posted: 13 Oct 2015 22:10 from: Tony W Hi Derek. The fact that the piece of trackwork is half off the picture does not help with seeing what is there. The road in front of the loco beyond the ground disc has a double bladed trap in it, although only the nearest switch blade is visible, to protect the running line. It would follow that the right hand track would also need the same provision. The switch blade you can see that looks like part of a slip road would be the left blade of another double ...

Then tried to do it again but not using making simple crossover, just using plain track by using make return curve.

... posted: 15 Sep 2010 12:46 from: Judi R Hi Richard, Depends on which era you're modelling. BR practice over the past 30- 40 years or so would be to square the timbers to the main through road and, as Richard has said, put in about half a dozen through timbers under the crossing 19'-6" or 20'-0" long for a standard 6-foot. Unless you're modelling a confined area, your third track would normally be placed further away, 8 to 10 feet from the adjacent track, and the timbering would then "unlace" itself. But... the exception always proves the rule! Judi posted: 15 Sep 2010 14:42 from: RichardTP Hi Thanks for your replies. I am trying to do an LMS 1930's ers layout. Should I square all of the timbers to the main lines? If so is there a tutorial anywhere on how I do this. Thanks Richard posted: posted: 15 Sep 2010 14:50 from: richard_t I can provide ...
