... topic: 2446 Flatbottom track cameo posted: 23 Apr 2014 08:30 from: Hayfield undefined Recently I bought some Peco sleepers and chairs quite cheaply (very against the MRRP) and my thoughts moved to building a small cameo. I have wanted to build some flatbottom track for a while and this has given me the opportunity to do so, all I need is some rail and a few good ideas As can be seen from the attached plan a simple turnout and single slip approach into a station, I could then build something in the region of 18" x 48" with both the between the track and lineside accessories from the likes of Peco, Wills and Ratio, just to create a small cameo Thoughts and ideas would be welcome Attachment: attach_1830_2446_Flatbottom_demo_p iece.box 245 Last edited on 23 Apr 2014 08:58 by Hayfield posted: 23 Apr 2014 08:39 from: Hayfield undefined undefined undefined Cannot send photos from phone via edit and cannot upload from computer as Windows 7 is playing up I give up with photos, can't seem to get ...
... player using FlashBack FBR video files, or 2. Adobe Flash SWF video on a web page, produced using the FlashBack editor from FBR files. In many ways SWF would be preferable, but there's a problem. Not all devices support Flash, and those that do require a separate plug-in for the browser. It seems that with the expansion of HTML5 web sites, geared for mobile devices, the writing is on the wall for Flash. I don't want to spend time creating SWF Flash videos and then find a few years down the line that not all Templot users can access them. So for the present I'm going for the first option, which is what we have been testing here. It's similar to the existing Templot executable videos from Camtasia, but with the big advantage that .fbr files don't trigger the security restriction on downloading which often happens with .exe files. I'm hoping to write a function similar to the .box file viewer for selecting .fbr tutorial videos to watch. In an ideal world I would like to integrate the FlashBack player into ...
923. Wide-to-Gauge Traps
... road between running lines is to use an ordinary short Y-turnout at the exit, but close only one point blade at a time to select the required route. While both blades remain open, the wheels drop onto the timbers but hopefully the vehicle remains in a straight line. These are quite common on London Underground system. An example of that is shown here: http://www.scalefour.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p =14183#p14183 Also in that picture of Brechin station on the Caledonian mentioned on here a few months ago http://www.crassoc.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f =7 &t =38#p199 Jim. posted: 14 May 2014 02:10 from: Ian Allen Michael, I've put a trap point in on the centre siding road and the options are as mentioned above by Martin and Jim. At the location you require one, you can use a normal trap point with two blades as any vehicle can run straight on. If you wish to go the wide to gauge route though, do it ...
924. Admin: server change
... topic: 2461 Admin: server change posted: 21 May 2014 04:50 from: Martin Wynne Dear all, You may have noticed that Templot Club and the Templot web site have been slow sometimes. This is due to server congestion -- we are still on the original server from 2007. Jim will be moving us to a bigger and better new server in the next few days, which should improve matters a lot. It may mean that we will be off-line for a while. While offline I will post updates on this link: http://templot-users.co.uk Make a note of it now in case you can't see it when you need it. This won't affect the running of Templot (assuming the UK server doesn't go down at the same time). regards, Martin.

925. Baseboard Material
... agree- the difference is the glue, Alan T's comment does not fully make sense given that Birch is a hardwood! Having said that, if you have damp problems sufficient to require marine plywood, the rest of your layout had better be pretty waterproof! By the way, BB grade is NOT that brilliant- but it is often the highest grade on offer from non-specialists. If you can't find anything better (A -A or A-B ), go and select the sheets in person to find the few with knot and joint free faces- don't just accept what you are offered- it might be all the stuff I rejected! Avoid Russian stuff... Best wishes, Howard. posted: 14 Jun 2013 12:00 from: Richard_Jones Hi All, Still on this topic of baseboards and plywood, but a slightly different tack....

... be to tick everything and set the email setting to receive emails as they are posted), just thought I'd check to see if any light can be shed on this. Hi Nigel, You can receive emails from Templot Club containing the actual message content in 2 ways: 1. direct from Templot Club using the Emailed Messages settings. 2. via the old Templot email group on Yahoo, if you are are member: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/templot/ Your choice, but direct emails usually arrive a few minutes before those via Yahoo. If you are receiving emails and haven't ticked the Emailed Messages boxes, you must be getting the emails via Yahoo. At the bottom of Yahoo emails it says: "This is a message from the Templot Club user forums at http://85a.co.uk/forum You received it via the Templot email group on Yahoo." If you change to direct emails you need to change to "web only" on your Yahoo group settings, otherwise you will get everything twice. See: message ...
928. Start up
... user gets an opportunity to save it before loading the new file. You can say "no thanks" with a single dab on the ESC key, so it is hardly a significant impediment to getting started. Then dab the ENTER key to load the new file and off you go. Over the years there have often been complaints about the start-up sequence. I never could understand it, because compared with two or three hours using Templot and the likely hundreds of mouse clicks and key presses, 5 seconds and a few clicks to get started seems hardly here or there. And if you are starting normally from the icon, all you need to do is hold down the ENTER key for a second or two. I have done my best to reduce the start-up to a minimum in TDV, but I don't think I can go any further without losing essential functionality. regards, Martin. posted: 23 Dec 2011 09:10 from: RedgateModels Thanks for the explanation Martin Parts of Templot Club may not function unless you enable JavaScript ...
... (the TDV) is magnificent, particularly the irregular diamond crossing feature made from two curved sections of rail, I can knock up these in a couple of minutes and for an extra minute or so turn them into slips, single or double as the case requires, it's brilliant. I went to the Poole& District Model Railway Society exhibition show on Sunday (13 NOV), held at on of our local grammar schools, and was surprised to learn when speaking to many of the model railway enthusiast's there, that very few used programs such as Templot to design their layouts !! I tried to explain to them, that they don't know what they are missing, and would find it much easier to plan and build the layout with such a program, also get much pleasure out of using it to try all the options of different layouts that might suit their requirements without spending lots of time drawing or sketching the options. Thanks again Martin, keep up the good work, but don't overdo it !! All the best, Brian Nicholls. ...

... topic: 1712 Print command failing posted: 1 Dec 2011 21:21 from: Gordon S It's not my night.... Martin, this has happened several times in the past few weeks. I'm using groups and highlight say 20 pieces of track. I then use print/group and this message comes up. 479_011611_530000000.jpg This stops everything and I cannot print. Typically it will be when I wish to print between 50 and 80 sheets. Closing this down, gets Templot running again but as soon as you go try and print again, the message is "Invalid request. The printer is in use". It completely locks out access to my printer and the only was I can get going again is to close Templot and start the process all over again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, so I may have to repeat the process several times. I also have to unplug my printer both power and USB connections and essentially reboot the whole thing. Any ideas? I'm on XP SP3. I had some problems with ...
... problem with 0.91 but couldn't so wasn't sure if it related to the TDV or not. Mind you it wasn't easy to reproduce in TDV either. Attached is one of the other screenshots I took at the time.

Rob Attachment: attach_1257_1715_Transition_crash _2.jpg 294 posted: 4 Dec 2011 17:54 from: Les G Hi guys, Having read of this "problem" first time around, and to avoid a third( or by then, maybe fourth) repeat in a few months time... How about re-naming this topic. For example:" Not a Templot transition problem"? After all, Martin has much he wishes to do, and repetitively going over old ground can be a classic blood pressure raiser. That said, praise for another patient explanation in Martin's excellent style Les G posted: 5 Dec 2011 13:36 from: gsmorris Agree an alarming fact,but not the tensing and avoidable. This has been asked about a number of time, by me also ...
... information box whilst moving ruler posted: 11 Dec 2011 22:07 from: Pete Brownlow Sorry, I don't know what went wrong with my original posting- here it is again. Many thanks for your efforts to bring us this new version of Templot. I downloaded it and installed according to the instructions- Windows XP SP3. All went fine and I copied over my box and shape files from 0.91c, which loaded up ok. This is my first try with TDV and the first time I've used Templot for quite a few months, so I guess I am probably quite rusty. I loaded up the ruler to see what space I have availabe for what I want to do. I noticed one oddity, not a show stopper, but as you move the ends of the ruler around, the last line in the information window (Timbering length) gets repeated over and over again. I don't know if it has always done this in previous versions, but I havn't noticed it. After escaping from the ruler, click on background and then ...
936. Dale Junction
... in that case, the Middle Road should have a pair of Catch/ Trap/ Safety points to protect such moves. Just regarding the "arrival/ departure platform" stuff, I grew up not far from Middleton (ex L&Y). When I knew it, the station was literally falling down, but nonethless, right up until the day it closed, the 2 car DMU would dutifully arrive at one platform, disgorge its one or two passengers then reverse out to cross to the other platform to await the few hardy souls going to Manchester. So your layout has much potential for some interesting shunting of passenger stock! Hope the above is of interest, Best Wishes, Howard. posted: 17 Dec 2011 20:48 from: PeterD Thank you Howard Your comments are just what I was looking for and the detail and explanation are VERY helpful. The station design is very loosely based on Bath Green Park of S&D fame. I shall go through your interesting points of operation and will give further feedback later. posted: ...
... inside slip there, without the radius being too sharp. Adjacent to that you have curved and straight tracks crossing. If you try using the TDV program, you will be able to convert those tracks to a proper irregular diamond-crossing. More about that here: topic 1731 regards, Martin. posted: 16 Dec 2011 23:38 from: Tony W Hi David. Martin's comment prompted me to down load your file and have a look. I concur. I have had a go at revising it and found a few more issues. As you say the timbering needs sorting out, however it is often the case that when you start to do this you find other problems that mean further adjustments need to be made. I have found yours to be a case in point. When you try to fit the missing diamond in that Martin refers to, you find the placing of the crossing makes the timbering impossible. I have widened the track spacing between the up and down main slightly to 79.96 mm centres. This allows everything fit much better ...

So although I have the answers I need I think it is useful to post the questions and answers up. As they say- ask as others may well have the same issues! HI Martin I have been using the development version a lot recently mostly while traveling and I have come across two come across a few minor things I have found are not unique to the development version. Probably I have not looked deeply into your notes. One:- being the idiosyncratic but useful undo function!! It always seems to go back further than I anticipated. And then I forget which template I am on and end up wiping it from the background. My problem mostly and can live with it as a couple of click in storage box gets you back usually. No answer required or wanted. Two:- How do I remember TS ...

It certainly is worth the try. Setting up the site should only take a few minutes. The main time spent would be deciding which one to use.
