The exhibitor I saw at the exhibition also was not using the templot sleeper spacing but was allowing a slightly bigger gap between sleepers, is this common practise? The default sleeper spacing in Templot is just that a default spacing. The correct spacing depends on prototype and date. This however is easy to achieve in Templot.

163. Error in BeginDoc
... the code for this error is some unusual/invalid characters in the file name or path. I don't have access to the source code for the PDF engine, so I can't see why re-using a file name would cause any problem in the drawing routines. The only possibility is that the PDF virtual printer can't find or create the file. You didn't by any chance have the old file open in a PDF reader while trying to overwrite it? cheers, Martin. posted: posted: 24 Dec 2017 22:02 from: Rob Manchester Martin, I just tried all variations I could think of when exporting a PDF and I can't get the error that Keith gets.

... alternative? I'm happy with the "Copy to current" as this makes sense to me. Judi Martin Wynne wrote I know this delete to the control/current wording is a bit mystifying, but it's the best I can come up with. It means "delete the previously stored template, and transfer the template data to the generator engine so that I can change things and then store a new one when I am ready". Unfortunately I can't fit all that on the menu. posted: 3 Nov 2010 17:02 from: Brian W Lewis Judi R wrote: Martin, I've always felt this nomenclature was non-intuitive but, like anything else, once you've learnt how to interpret it, it's manageable.

Some of the photos I have of Whitby shed show some very tight turnouts A's. BTW my understanding of all this has greatly improved since you helped me with the tandem design- so again, my thanks for your help- like all people here I suspect, it is a steep learning curve but well worth it. Last edited on 31 Oct 2014 03:02 by DerekStuart posted: 4 Nov 2014 18:21 from: Tony W Hi Derek. I have now had a chance to scan the table I referred to earlier. It comes from a small book called British Rail Handbook by B.K.Cooper published in 1981 and refers to the then modern Flat bottomed point work being installed by BR. Note that the limits for a crossover are often lower than for a single turnout due to the reverse curve. I would expect that Bullhead P&C speed limits would be lower than these figures ...

... topic: 261 Soddingham-under-Piddle posted: 25 Nov 2007 02:00 from: BeamEnds Hi folks, attatched is product of a derranged mind. I wanted to model in 0, but not having space for a tail-chaser (without going through into next doors loft) and definately not wanting yet another MPD I came up with this. There's no way I'd ever have been able to contemplate anything like this without Templot- cheers Martin. The "rationale" (if that's the word!) is at http://home.btconnect.com/soddingham Critiques welcome (I bet Martin spots the major deliberate mistake first), as are drawings of 1980's vintage colour light signals. I know the shoving of timbers isn't finished yet, and the points are a mish-mash, but that will be sorted out. Soon. Honest.

I hope that is what you meant Martin. I've managed to space the rails out a bit more prototypically on the right hand side without losing much more radii on the curves and points. It looks better for it too! File attached of latest update.

174. Dud(ley) Plot?
... you may get some answers Using the shove timbers option is quite easy and will tidy up the plan. As for the slips go to Real -Timbering- Half diamond- slip, this is an automatic function (rails are not) for the timbers. 3 way is a manual operation but do it on the plan. The tutorials are quite easy to follow for both which include the adjustments for rails I would say tidy up the plan as much as you can first on the program posted: 14 Jun 2014 09:02 from: Phil O Some timbering can only go in one place to support the special chairs used in the crossing which need to be supported. Switches tend to be fairly standardised in their timbering as well. You will need to refer to the track standrards used by your prefered prototype for the info. Having just looked at the OP it looks as though you might have three standards BR for the mainlines and GW and LMS /LNWR for sidings etc. depending on who was responsible for what.

... information might help as to the reason behind my queries. The situation I have is where there are two crossovers that are parallel to each other. Perhaps it is therefore acceptable to use long timbers to support all of the rails in certain positions? The other alternative is to replace the long timbers at the heel end of the turnouts with individual timbers, and twist the timbers that are supporting the rails connecting the crossover. Michael Last edited on 20 Jul 2014 20:28 by Michael Woolford posted: 21 Jul 2014 12:02 from: Martin Wynne Hi Michael, It is certainly acceptable to have a timber running under a rail without a chair, provided the rail is adequately supported in other chairs on each side. I'm not too clear what you are asking about long timbers -- it is normal to have several long timbers at the centre of a crossover. That's why Templot leaves a gap for the opposite timbers to be extended into. How many long timbers varies with different prototype companies. It's not usual to have two separate timbers end- ...
177. Changing Prototype
... was done using Templot version 091c and is 5 years old. Some of the menu items have changed in the current version, and extra functions are now available. For example check rails (guard rails) can now be easily adjusted by mouse action. And flat-bottom rails can be printed with the foot edge lines on the templates. If you have only just started with Templot, I would recommend becoming familiar with some of the basics before attempting a full prototype customization. regards, Martin. posted: 25 Feb 2013 02:50 from: Laidlaym Thanks Martin, I have made some progress and have avoided created VR specific turnouts for the moment. I am battling to create a double cross-over with 45mm track centres in 16.5. I can lay four turnouts with lots of overlap to look like a double cross-over but I haven't actually inserted the crossing in the middle. I must be able to integrate the crossing into the turnout but haven't worked out how as yet. I must be using limited functionality because the only way I ...
