... topic: 563 Minimum Chainages posted: 24 Sep 2008 02:25 from: phileakins Not having the the right volumes in my library (someone out-bid me!)- can anyone tell me the minimum chainages for curves/turnouts for both running lines and sidings applicable pre-group (c 1915) lines? Sorry, I know it's a very broad question, but from an OS survey it looks like 4 to 4.5ch for running lines and 3ch (perhaps a little less) for sidings. Confirmation would be nice though! Thanks Phil posted: 26 Sep 2008 03:47 from: phileakins Ummm... No-one got a view? Phil posted: 26 Sep 2008 04:35 from: Martin Wynne phileakins wrote: Ummm... No-one got a view? Hi Phil, I don't think any such fixed limits exist. Everything depends on what rolling stock you expect to run on it, and at what speed. Sharp curves have gauge-widening, continuous check rails and severe speed restrictions. Continuous ...
... topic: 1804 Help with a space issue on my plan. posted: 23 Jan 2012 02:23 from: Katier Hi Folks, I've been adjusting my track plan for Emmyton and after a bit of a lightbulb moment adjusted the crossovers but for some reason I didn't seem to gain the space I expected. The old arrangement is below, I figured id I swapped the crossovers I might gain space.. but I didn't.. (we are talking about the blue section NOT the pink) post-11540-0 -47354900-1313016155_thumb.jpg I know why now, the facing crossover has shunted across one points worth so while platform 1 (the top) has gained, the bottom sidings haven't changed at all... But I'm sure we can adjust the pointwork to gain a few inches which I'd like to do for a couple of reasons. 1) Currently the two carriage/parcels sidings can't quite store 4 coaches but another couple of inches they can. 2) I have the space :P The platform capacities are as follows ...
... , after conversion to PDF (the track plan just about runs onto a second paper sheet) only a straight section of trackwork upto the turnout plus a small section of turnout is coming up when the PDF file is opened- the rest of sheet one appears blank. Sheet 2 shows the buffer-end of the siding curve, which agrees with print preview. I hope that makes sense- any ideas as to what's happening to the trackwork in the middle please? Thanks. Brian. posted: 30 Oct 2008 16:02 from: Martin Wynne Hi Brian, Which version of Windows are you using, and what graphics dpi resolution have you set in pdf995? Have you tested that the roller printer works with other large-area PDF files? I'm selecting a paper size of 36" by 60" Just a thought -- you didn't get those swapped over anywhere, or set Landscape instead of Portrait on the printer or in pdf995? regards, Martin. posted: 30 Oct 2008 16:39 from: polybear Hi Martin, The pc ...
... as I actually want to get on with the sequence of 3 double slips from the carriage sidings to the dock lines rather than be mucking around with printers! Thanks in anticipation, Phil posted: 31 Aug 2008 01:11 from: Nigel Brown Hi Phil I take it you've done the obvious, i.e. clicked on "print entire pad", and when finally you get to the point where you select which sheets you want printed, you click "print all remaining pages"? cheers Nigel posted: 31 Aug 2008 02:31 from: pjhill Nigel Brown wrote: Hi Phil I take it you've done the obvious, i.e. clicked on "print entire pad", and when finally you get to the point where you select which sheets you want printed, you click "print all remaining pages"? cheers Nigel Nigel, Thanks for the reply.

... topic: 1764 Kingsbere posted: 4 Jan 2012 18:45 from: LSWRArt Hi everyone Here are my first ideas for my new 0 gauge layout- which will be LSWR circa 1912. Minimum radius is generally 1200mm and I propose to run a Terrier, and probably in the future an 02 and radial tank. All comments would be gratefully received. I hope that it will not look too cramped in the very small space available? If the overall layout is OK, what about the sleepering. It does not look quite right to me, but not sure what to do to improve it. I will send the sketchboard separately Regards Arthur Attachment: attach_1297_1764_Kingsbere_4Jan12 .box 341 posted: 4 Jan 2012 18:46 from: LSWRArt Here is the sketchboard to go with Kingsmere track plan Arthur Attachment: attach_1298_1764_kingsbere_bldgs_4 jan12.sk9 354 posted: 4 Jan 2012 20:28 from: Rob Manchester Hello Arthur, Just my views :- 1) How do you run round a train in the platform? 2) There is a lot of shuffling back and forward to ...
... topic: 1892 LNER 1930s crossover- rail lengths and timbering posted: 30 Mar 2012 10:02 from: ESJAYTEE This is perhaps a little esoteric, but perhaps one of you may have some info. In templot we can set rail lengths to produce standard panels of plain track. We can specify switch lengths and crossings corresponding to REA and some pre-REA specs, but can we specify the rail length used to make up a turnout? The straight stockrails of the C9's I'm making a crossover from appear to arrive with a joint approximately along with the joint for the switches and another a scale 60' further along the exit road. What would the lengths of blank rail supplied to a P-way yard/manufacturer be? I know 30'/45'/60' is a common measurement for plain track panels, but in what lengths was fresh plain rail supplied? (no bonus points for saying P4exactoL Stores say 0.5m through the post or 1.0m at shows!) I'm trying to replicate an LNER 1930's spec crossover using the ...
... topic: 490 Size of railway room for a P4 layout posted: 14 Jul 2008 02:28 from: Ian Everett Dear all, I would love your collective wisdom on this matter. I am developing a model railway room in my new house for my "final P4 project", a typical U-shaped terminus to fiddle yard layout layout which will require the lines on the two sides of the room to be connected by a 90 degree double track curve at one end of the room. In our house we have two options: 1) partitioning off part of a large floor area, which would give me effectively any size of room that I need 2) Using an existing room 8' wide. (1) is more expensive than (2) and has other disadvantages so although our initial idea was to create a 9 ft wide room, we now favour option (2 ), an 8' wide alternative location. In my initial plans my working assumption was a room 9' wide. I am worried that a room ...

One question though. In your explanation above you mention uninstalling the existing drivers before installing the new graphics card. What would happen if the new card doesn't ...
... - providing we are not working in scale/gauge combinations where extreme accuracy is /required/ then rolling gauges seem to be perfectly adequate. Where extreme accuracy /is/ required (or desired) the appropriate set of gauges as outlined by Martin removes the need for extreme skill (thankfully!). Looking forward to seeing you and Mrs L in Lakeland (I nearly said "in the Lakes"- which could be misconstrued) if you're in the area.

... topic: 3245 Exactoscale versus C&L BH chairs -- FB rail supplies posted: 20 Mar 2018 02:19 from: Rob Manchester Hello, Can anybody pass comment/opinion or whatever concerning the difference between Exactoscale and C&L 4mm scale plastic chairs. I am just discussing the one for plain track, not S&C work. Phil at C&L stocks both and I have used the C&L branded ones( usually the 3-bolt or should that be hole?) in the past. Are there any advantages of the Exactoscale ones? Is the plastic any different or brittle or harder to glue etc etc. Thanks for any opinions. Rob posted: 20 Mar 2018 03:15 from: Martin Wynne Hi Rob, There seems to be problems with both of them in fitting different batches of rail.

BTW, you asked us to let you know if the internet for the Templot club is slow. I went to read your last two messages, and found I kept getting the message: Oops! Internet Explorer could not connect to 85a.co.uk This was from 17:42 until I have just read your messages at 19:02. Now I tried many times to communicate during this period, however, it could have come back on-line a few minutes earlier than 19:02, as was busy doing some transition curves over the later few minutes. It does appear to be back to normal now. Many thanks again for the help and tips. All the best, Brian Nicholls. posted: 26 Nov 2011 19:44 from: Martin Wynne Brian Nicholls wrote: Oops!

... , almost certainly there would be only one ground signal for both roads. Also the hand lever would be on the left, away from the running line, and there is no sign of a suitable linkage. The switch on the bottom left might be a hand lever, or might be rodded from the box. However with the other three switches rodded I think it likely that this one would be too, and the lie of the switches is in accordance with this. double_outslip.jpg regards, Martin. posted: 30 May 2008 02:06 from: phileakins Thanks Martin. When you think about it, would any signalling scheme allow ends of the same point to be separately controlled? Both ends are 'on the box' in some fashion, but it is plainly possible to set a route which could result in a run through. Of course we can't see the crossover behind the photographer and presumably the the mechanical locking wouldn't allow the clearing of a signal for a plainly wrong route, but (as I tell trainees) signals do not put an inpenetrable ...

The reply included the following: A detailed guide to setting up custom plain track spacings is in this document compiled by Stuart Hince: http://www.templot.com/martweb/pdf_files/gwr_track_panels.pdf The numbers given are actually for the GWR, but the method is applicable for all companies.
