You might also like to consider the following: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f =11&t =51055 One thing I cannot stress enough is that you need good quality templates to the standards you intend to build to. If you intend to use Templot be aware that Templot does not plot the outside edge of the flatbottom rail which makes location of the rail difficult. Martin does have a workaround which a search of this forum should find. 1. I have been used to dealing with Peco Insulfrog turnouts, I just realised these are Live Frog (so obvious really, I just wasn't thinking before I asked). 2. I like this method very much, it is very suitable for N Scale. 3. This is good news, I have already contacted Fast Tracks (Hand Laid Tracks?). By shear fluke whilst browsing the other day I discovered an interesting NEM specification under 310/311( http://www.morop.org/de/normes/nem310-311_d_bbl2.pdf). Close examination of the specification ...
... The gauge difference between Peco and OO-SF is insignificant for plain track running. So the P+ C areas need to give me the running characteristics I want so OO-SF will do that. To get the track laid in my lifetime... Some/lots of flex track will certainly help. But, vastly different sleepers between P+ C trackwork and plain track will stand out like...'..... That's where the thinking is now. The thinking used to be code 100 insulfrog, then when I found out how poorly that ran modern RTR wheels I looked at the conventional code 75 Peco stuff. A Peco Technical Advice Bureau person responded to a question seeking to find out the flangeway spec on code 75, 100 and 83 by what I expected but hoped not to be the case. Code 75 and 100 have identical flangeway and span specifications. The code 83 being NMRA does have a better spec at 1.2mm flangeways but some modern RTR wheels I have measured at 2.37 and I suspect that may not ...
