... make ordering/stock checking a breeze. I am looking at the 'old fashioned' route of using injection moulded chairs and actually glueing them on.... Rob posted: 16 Jul 2018 23:59 from: d827kelly A great addition to templot! posted: 17 Jul 2018 08:12 from: richard_t I've been doing similar, in 2D, using my cad program- I think I'd go slightly crazy doing a full plan, even though the chairs are blocks so they just need putting in the correct place. Attached is a simple A6 turnout, without the crossing chairs- it's a PDF, as the PNG I generated looked awful.

... on his computer. I have had similar emails in the past from users who have lost all their Templot files following hard disk failure or for other reasons. We all know how many hours of work may have gone into such files, and the great loss this represents. It's easy to say such files should have been backed up, but that's not always straightforward without buying extra drives, finding a blank CD, subscribing to an online backup service, or whatever. So it seemed to me that uploading your file as an attachment here on Templot Club would be a simple and quick way to keep a safe copy of your files, which you could download again if ever needed. Of course, this web site is not a secure data centre so you shouldn't use this as the only backup of important personal files, and I can offer no guarantee that your data will be 100% safe for all time. But Jim Hale at Data 1 Systems has a very robust backup schedule for our Templot Club database. Which means that uploading a file here ...
... need to add in a 3 way tandem turnout (So I can remove a point and save a little space). Now I tried to follow all the old instructions but when I added the 3rd set with no timbers it looked horribly wrong. So if anyone out there has experience with them that could help me get that finished that would be a big help as it's the only thing I am stuck on. Other than that I just need to shove some timbers and wait for C&L to re-open.

... Staircliffe Exchange Sidings- Hull& Barnsley Railway c.1910 posted: 5 Apr 2012 21:56 from: David Yates Since I posted my layout plan for Staircliffe Exchange Sidings earlier this week, I've found it necessary make adjustments to the sidings headshunt, which means that the scissors crossing as originally conceived needs to be adjusted. I've spent the best part of a day trying to make the necessary adjustments, but with no success, so once again I'm appealing for help from the more enlightened among you to come to the rescue. The attached plan shows what I'm trying to achieve, the crossover at present being represented by two straight rails each connecting a pair of the diagonally opposite points. Can anyone out there, who fully understands what's involved, please come to my rescue and do what's needed to give me what I'm aiming for, or as close to what I'm aiming for as possible? Many thanks, in anticipation of someone saving my sanity! Regards, Dave Yates Attachment: attach_1417_1901_Staircliffe_Excha nge_Sidings_v14_05-04-12_Dev) .box 414 posted: 6 Apr 2012 ...

Martin, I'm sorry. I just don't know. Maybe it got in with the setup of Boot Camp. Is it possible that you could post some screenshots showing exactly what the screen looks like before you launch Templot, and describe the sequence of exactly what you then see in detail? See attached for a screen shot pasted into Windows Paint after the error occurs. I'll send some additional shots and more dialog in the morning. You can just see the first Templot screen behind the Windows error window. Finally, how much do these Intel Macs cost? What is the minimum I would need to spend to be able to replicate your problem here? I'm not sure what the costs are in the UK, but you can go to http://www.apple.com.us and go to the store to get an idea of the ...

... I have. It is a copy of 'Elan', a trackplan from Ian Rice's book 'Layout Design, Finescale in Small Spaces'. I have used, for me, the easiest method of lay the trackwork. I had some problems with the single slip, but using Brian Nicholls excellent instructions, I have cobbled together something that fits in the space. I would appreciate any comments as to whether it is buildable and run able. I will be using 0-6 -0 tank and tender locos.

PS: I reported this at: topic 205- message 1018 posted: 26 Jul 2008 14:42 from: Alan Turner trouble is it's not my drawing and I don't know enough about TurboCAD to correct anything like that.

Hi Alan, It's difficult to help without seeing the file. Can you attach it here? DXFs are accepted and you can go up to 5MB. If it's track I think it's probably not the closing of polylines which Richard mentioned. Most likely it contains blocks. Templot doesn't do blocks, they should be exploded before saving the DXF file. There's an option in TurboCad's Save dialog to explode any blocks. regards, Martin. posted: 26 Jul 2008 17:27 from: Alan Turner Martin Wynne wrote: It's difficult to help without seeing the file.

... : Paul Willis Afternoon all, I have to say that this Templot lark has just about clicked with me. It may have taken years, and much of that has been lurking on the Templot Forum whilst more sophisticated techniques than I need are discussed, but I now feel that I understand the principles. I do find the user interface to still be a total illogical struggle, and that is where I need some help please. There must be tools and techniques in there somewhere for "tidying up" a plan. The attached is based on a trackplan of Wantage, drawn by Barry Norman and published in one of the Wild Swan books. All of the fundamentals are in the right places (I'll post the background image separately as it seems that only one attachment can accompany each message) but I can't get it "tidy". There are two main issues that I'd like to solve.- I've designed it so that each of the turnouts have "link" pieces of plain tracks in between them, so that I can deal with it ...
... but i'd rather it be on one continuous run. Try as i might i've now ran out of ideas. The baseboard is all but made, most of the pointwork has been made in sub-assemblies ready to be laid. This cannot happen until the Templot has been laid onto the baseboard. Being not so clever on PC i'm sure that this can be overcome- just that i can't figure it out. If you have any solutions then please can you post them in "idiot-proof" format. I have attached both the .BOX and .PDF files so you might be able to help. I'm keen to work the reason out as this is just a Test Track to convert "00" gauge locomotives to P4 then from DC to DCC. Next will be the layout and so i will eventually come across this problem again.

... file contains only the size of the picture shape and its position on the trackpad grid. The actual image is in the SK81 file, which you will find in the same folder as the BGS file, usually your \SHAPE-FILES\ folder, after saving the BGS file. It will be a much larger file than the BGS. If you have more than one picture shape, it will be in SK82, etc. cheers, Martin. Cheers Martin. I've tried again but clearly operator error prevails. The picture attachment shows where I get to before Templot enters 'Not Responding' when trying to Straighten. I'll attach the images I have separately and describe that which I'm hoping achieve. Thanks for your patience.

... layout, drawn exactly on the map as far as I am able. I wonder if this is as satisfactory as I think it is!? It's all done using the "beginner" tools but it looks fine to me- or maybe there are some improvements that can easily be made before I start actually making the trackwork? The only thing I know needs to be done (apart from finishing plotting one track into the shed) is putting in missing timbers on the 3 way turnout. I don't know if I can attach more than one file. I'll post again with the other file that Templot sent to my computer at the same time.

... topic: 1468 Irregular Diamond Vee Wing Rails 'Joggled' !! posted: 28 Apr 2011 19:53 from: Brian Nicholls Hi All, (particularly Martin) Still on the subject of irregular diamonds, I having been working on another one for the New Street layout, and the finished result has come up with a strange set of wing rail bends on one of them, the bend appears to be, I can only describe as, 'joggled', as shown in the screenshot of the attached GIF file. Now this particular Vee crossing has the following data: 9 ft. straight heel right-hand switch (unjoggled) 1 in 2.76 RAM curviform V-crossing( 1 in 2.85 CLM) (I know Templot suggests that such small angles not be used[ less than 1: 4], but the layout dictated this). Also as previously reported, I have recently received some copies of original LNWR civil engineering drawings of their Vee crossings and diamond crossings, and they go right down to prototype angles of 1: 2 ! ...
... from: Stumpytrain Hi, Well I had a quick tinker with No.10 crossover today, I'm quite pleased with the results so far. Am I doing something wrong as I keep ending up with loads of templates in my storage box? Also I've got a gap in the rails between the two crossing vees. How did that happen? Is it because I've deleted the wrong template when trying to tidy my box? Anyway, I'm happy with the results so far. I'm not looking forward to doing the scissors crossover though!

... I thought I might not be able to build the layout if the crossover was that big, but I can get a scale model of the section I want to model on a set boards 19' long. I've added a couple of photos to see if anyone could identify what the pointwork is. Not great photos at the moment, but I'll be going back in the next few days to get some better images from the other platform. I'll add a few files here to show you how its going.

... would be more to the left but I was unable to fashion the plan like this due to the radius of the points on the 'Wenford' Line (that's what looks like a branch) falling below 3ft. Why 3ft? I will probably use three link couplings for wagon rakes that do not need uncoupling and of course in time, who knows, It could be converted to P4 just by changing the track (only joking!) I would welcome any comments and advice. Please. Thanks for reading and looking RichardS Norwich Attachment: attach_2451_3038_Bosmellin_9.box 298 posted: 20 Jun 2017 15:00 from: Martin Wynne Hi Richard, This turnout was mismatched at all 3 boundaries. To fix it without changing your other alignments I used a 9ft-5.6 turnout. Although very short, the contraflexure means the radii remain well within your limits. With a bit more tweaking it could be changed to a more likely prototype 1:5.5 angle. Or with more tweaking to a B-6. 2_200955_080000000.png You have made very little use of transition curves, which ...
... topic: 3657 Not quite Ogbourne posted: 5 May 2020 00:38 from: Richard Brummitt I've been plodding on with this over a number of evenings and finally have something that I'm happy to share for constructive criticism. Hopefully I've attached the correct file. A few points: The real place is pretty straight through the station but to create sufficient space for the bay platform I have put in a transition curve after the curviform turnout from the mainline The yard is much shorter than in reality for the later yard with just two sidings. It is closer in length to the original yard with 3 sidings where one siding faced in the other (southerly) direction, like a headshunt?, towards the hamlet. The layout is limited to 600mm in length but the plan is more than 600mm long. The ends will protrude into the off stage area. I've left them a bit raggedy as that can be cleared up 'on-site'. The turnouts are meant to be to earlier GWR switch and crossing practice and have had adjustments made as best ...
... end of the platforms(top right on the plan) that comprise the line from the down Platform across the upline to the goods shed. I've been able to create diamonds else where but none of these has been on a transition curve. Do I need to first make a turnout, get that aligned and then create a half diamond after that? Can anyone give me some pointers or tell me where I can read up on this(ideally an illustrated version as I'm not too good with just words alone!) I've attached my current box file. As you will see I've moved the goods shed lines out of the way temporally and the new siding running between the up and down main lines is not yet connected at either end. Any guidance would be much appreciated Kind regards Andrew Attachment: attach_2020_2601_Yeovil-Platforms-tidied.box 364 posted: 22 Dec 2014 19:45 from: Martin Wynne Hi Andrew, Very briefly: Delete the transition template to the control.
