... directly and may be able to help me track down a copy of CJ Allen's work- a bit embarrassing not to have thought of asking him directly, actually. As for the Yahoogroups thread, thanks for the link. For some reason I deregistered from the yahoogroup, but of course there is a valuable archive on there: the group does not turn up on searches within Yahoogroups, so the link is very useful. And for a second dose of embarrassment, I actually contributed to that discussion. Since I am now a few years over the median age in the UK, I will put it down to growing senility... Regards, Simon posted: 27 Oct 2009 12:38 from: Adrian Marks Thanks Martin. Although I believe the GERS itself doesn't hold the drawings, they do have a list of standard GE plans held at the ERO at Chelmsford; these are dated between 1898 and 1924. The 13 sleepers per 30ft rail taken from Allen and discussed in the link above is absolutely correct, but not really suitable for Simon's purposes ...
... but I hope others find the various formations, rail types and fixings of interest. I havent visited since the photos were taken but I believe all is still in situ. http://gallery17789.fotopic.net/c1254572.html Hope of interest, Steve W posted: 22 Feb 2010 14:05 from: Martin Wynne Hi Steve, Welcome to Templot Club. Many thanks for that. It's great to have some detail pics of industrial light FB (bent flares on check/wing rails). Someone was asking for exactly that only a few days ago, but I can't remember where. Anyone? Thanks again Steve. regards, Martin. posted: 22 Feb 2010 14:48 from: swhite01 Martin, thank you for the comments. I had viewed the forum this morning and had hoped I wasnt to cheeky posting the link.

I've just got my Wild Swan book out and there are a few "deviations" from the both the Wild Swan published plan (which I assume is P Denny's work), Photographs of the layout and the plan in RM. For a start the turnout into the engine shed is a split deflection "Y" and the two turnouts in the entrance to the platform road is in fact a "3 -way", not separate as shown, which will save space.

... it properly back in October. I have to say what a brilliant bit of software it is. I'm addicted to it now. I seem to find myself drawing up all these layout plans which won't ever get built Anyway, I have recently started the switch from OO to P4. I have built track including points before and find that I am now capable of moving it on a little. The plan which I have attached is not perfect but will more than likely be the finished article. I still need to shove a few timbers. The layout will be a depot accessed from the mainline via a straight bit of line which passes under a motorway bridge. The motorway bridge will act as the scenic break so I don't have to model the straight line with the junction to the mainline. To the left where the three roads are will be a large 3 road shed. I will be using two of the Pikestuff sheds for this as I have used these kits before and they are great. I will be adding structural detail inside however. The ...

So the inevitable question is.... when I DO select the "insert turnout into plain track" option, can I have it insert my base #5 turnout and not one Templot decides to insert? Do I need to somehow make my #5 turnout the control template, if so how? I know there are a few noob questions here but hopefully someone can assist while I go figure out how to make S curves to insert the turnouts into...

The interesting map (plan of track layout), is that of the one not dated, and although it is marked BR LMSR, it looks almost the same layout as I have for my 1921 LNWR plan, which is what I am working too. There are just a few subtle changes, which occurred about 1945, just after world war 2, to fully repair and replace damage caused during the war. There is another plan (layout) dated 1882, which fortunately, I already have a similar copy of this from another source. The difference between the Network Rail Pan and my copy is, that it looks as if the Network Rail is a reproduced, tidied up drawing copy, where my plan is of the original drawing, which shows the properties that were purchased to enable the extension ...

... topic: 1128 First attempt as modelling Leicester -Belgrave GNR Spur posted: 22 May 2010 10:02 from: nickom Hello all, I have been using Templot for a few months now and find it an excellent CAD tool, (once you master the menus and commands and its filing system), anyway I have attempted to model the Leicester Belgrave GNR spur terminus station and have used a scanned 1:500 image from my local records office as an overlay, one question I have is that I modelled it all in P4, but after attending the EM show in Bracknell and after many discussions on the pros and cons decided to change to EM, Is there an easy way to change the scale in Templot so i dont have redo it all, i.e does changing the scale in the menu Template Gauge and Scale change to EM reposition every accurately without having to the re-align the templates. I have attached the Box file, I haven't attached the BGS file and .BMP as I wasn't sure this was acceptable to the group, ( ...
... topic: 1174 New project blank pad? posted: 21 Jul 2010 20:57 from: Jerry I am a new member and a have only had Templot for less than 2 weeks. Already I have been able to do a (very) rough layout of my proposed P4 layout. My progress so far has been as a result of reading many of the Club topics and using Templot help. I should say that reading is one of the things I enjoy most. I was once known as one of the few people who had read the original Factories Acts from cover to cover.( sad) I am beginning to understand how the storage box works but I am a long time Windos user and cannot get my head round how to start a new project, with a new name and a blank canvas (pad). Can anyone enlighten me please. I don't want to destroy my existing work.

... McMillan I just remember how that Brush 4 looked at Carstairs- it was a derailment waiting to happen- and in P87 it probably would! Alan posted: 30 Oct 2009 09:15 from: Jamie92208 Remembering more about that accident report. In 12 inches to the foot minor changes in the set up of the wagon's suspension coupled with poor maintenance of the track brought a wheelset, with several tons holding each axle down, off the track. I don't hold out much hope for our hobby when you are talking about a few gramms of adhesion weight in some cases.

... , I thought it would be the answer to a dream. I managed to print off a couple of templates, built the points using C&L stuff, all very nice. But, being a computer numpty and having a short memory span for things techy doesn't help. I still can't work out how to move the red peg thingy from one bit of track to another. Do I have to save every template as I perfect it then move along to the next bit? So, went abroad this week for a few days away, took laptop with Templot installed and sat down and watched the video, something simple, how to make an ovel. Do you think I could do it? No. Every time I get to the bit where it says "enter swing angle" or similar to get the 180degree curve, that particular bit does not crop up on my screen. I'm at a loss! Maybe the tutorial has ben updated? posted: 24 Oct 2009 19:59 from: Phil O Hi Welcome to templot. The ...
... that state up until during and just shortly after WW2, when subtle changes were made to the layout, culminated in the usual plans c1950, we see in books today. Whilst at BCL I took more than a hundred photographs of these plans and many other documents of interest. After some six weeks, and much negotiation, since my visit to BCL, I have finally managed to get them to copy the 1921 plan, and was told only Friday, that the copy has been posted and should be with me in a few days. In the meantime, I started to try and scale from the photo's I took of the plan, but am not 100% happy about accuracy due to many factors. However, the photo's have allowed me to view some of the problems I am facing, so I have been practicing in TEMPLOT trying to produce the right templates. The attached photo shows one of those problem areas on the plan, the major concern here is the 4 way split just below the diamond crossing (or single slip), which ...

... then you can peg the second turnout over the the first turnout using the notch. Leave the peg Y dimension unchanged on half-gauge for the main-road centre-line. I'll make a bit of Jing video shortly showing that. Hi Richard, Here's some Jing video showing how to offset two switches for a tandem turnout when you know the exact stagger offset required. There is no need to use the mouse actions, you can enter the data directly to set the relative peg positions. The video may take a few moments to load. Mouse over it to access the controls. Click the loudspeaker icon to mute the sound if it is not to your liking. Just for illustration I used the p prefix to enter prototype data in inches when model data in mm is requested. (29ft-6in is 354"). The scale is currently 7mm/ft, so Templot converts that to 206.5mm for you. The X dimension to the peg is relative to the CTRL-0 datum position on the template. Dimensions are positive forward ...
