121. Check Rail Chairs
... range of flangeways (1.02mm, 1.25mm, 1.50mm and 1.75mm) for the different 7mm scale gauges. The plain chairs can be used for any 7mm gauge alongside the C&L and Exactoscale offerings. The crossing chairs are a different kettle of fish as non-scale (i.e. non-S7) involves re-designing all the chairs from scratch; but you could use bits of them cosmetically.

Well, only one in this post. You'll have to wait for the others. 100_131349_560000000.jpg The 7mm scale LNER P1 slide chair is now available in packs of 20 and 100. Note the hole in the jaw for the stud bolt (lots of spare stud bolts included on the sprue!) which should be inserted through a hole drilled in the stock rail ...
... For example the goods loop should be spaced 10ft way from the main. But if you do that it would take up so much space for the crossovers that there would be no room left for the sidings. I've settled on 7ft way just to show that we do know it should be more than the 6ft way of running lines. I hope that's ok. Absolutely, that sounds like the right thing to do. Thank you! nick Last edited on 14 Aug 2007 21:23 by Rextanka posted: 17 Aug 2007 06:36 from: Martin Wynne Hi Nick, Here's the full track layout. If this is ok I will get the timbers shoved and do a full set of partial templates for the tandem. The diamond-crossing is 1:7 and now straight. I moved the head spur alongside the platform track. This is slightly longer and looks more natural, and allows better scenic treatment. As drawn there was no room for the fence between the tracks. fremington5.png Let me know if this is ok and I will get ...

... me know my errors please. The one area I am a bit concerned with is the curves from the Vee tip on the first common crossing to the other two I do have to tidy up the sleepering a bit and I need to find out again how to do breaks in rails to stop them running through the flangeway gaps in the common crossings, though this is just a cosmetic change.

This means that there is not enough room to open the second switch blade with its stretcher bar fixing behind the first switch rail, or to fit the slide chairs. As a rule of thumb you need about 3 rail-widths of gap between the rails at the tip. You have only about half of that: 2_190757_580000000.png Remember that the template shows the switches in the closed position, ...

... topic: 1533 Possible bug posted: 13 Jun 2011 08:06 from: its_all_downhill Hello Martin, I don't know whether to be happy or sad as I having joined your beta crew initially seeing all the other more learned users posting feedback to the TDV I thought I might have been a bit to eager to jump on the band wagon. However the more I use TDV I find more and more features I never really knew about and that make life so much easier Anyway on to the reason for the post, whilst trying to reimport a background image (jpeg) back into a plan I received the following error. If I click on enter dimensions then it can be readded. Is this just me or one of the gremlins?

It's not strictly speaking a bug. The add clicked shape function assumes that you have previously clicked ...
127. Track Plan 01
... based on the LNWR in pre-grouping times or perhaps branch line operation in post grouping (LMS) days, when those carriages would still have been in revenue service. The use of a traverser indicates perhaps storage for a number of trains with which you may seek to operate a prototypical sequence of trains on your model railway. Are you seeking to achieve some sort of prototypical operation? A little more information would probably elicit and greater and more interesting response from the group. Best regards, Pierre posted: 14 Jan 2014 06:35 from: Murryb Hi Pierre What I am looking at is a LNWR branch and I have taken the plan from Llanrwst& Trefriw and add double tracks at one end, as for prototypical operation that is a possibility. This will most likely be the only layout I will build so has to look reasonable good and provide interest over time. I have a large barn and 1.5 acres.the idea of the traverser is storage and to join up with the double track leading outside and the single line branching off ie like the ...

A fascinating map series for me, as it shows the Somerset and Dorset at a time when the Bath Extension was newly constructed and was still single tracked (though double tracked south of Evercreech Jn as far as Templecombe). It also illustrates the limitations of the 25" series, in that the cartographers were not unduly concerned about the ...
... have the TechSmith lossless codec which I used in the old Camtasia videos, and now we have the FBR format for the latest videos. But neither of those can be used on a web page. Fortunately FlashBackConnect provide their streaming server for our FBR videos, but the HTML5 web format on there isn't a patch on the FBR videos playing in the native player in Templot. I dare say we shall survive. At times like this I like to sit down with a nice boiled egg.

In the past I have had to use FBR/FlashbackConnect and I also agree that it was not a very good experience at all. I daresay that someone with a decent product will step up and fill the gap in the next couple of years. Just stumbled across this article which might be of interest if you haven't already. It just seems that ...
... topic: 3692 Groups and marker colours posted: 5 Jun 2020 11:06 from: Gordon S I'm always using groups when working on my layout design and something has puzzled me. When you have a whole group of templates and realise you have a misalignment or need to amend one piece of track within the group, you bring the template to the control, make the changes and then save, but in doing so, you lose the group marker colour for that piece of track. That means going back to group all templates and selecting the market colour for the group all over again. Am I missing something, or is there a way that the piece of track you have amended can keep it's original marker colour once you save it. Of course I'm assuming I'm doing it correctly.... posted: 5 Jun 2020 11:50 from: Martin Wynne Gordon S wrote: That means going back to group all templates and selecting the market colour for the group all over again.

... topic: 3685 Kyle of Lochalsh- comments welcome posted: 31 May 2020 08:06 from: Julian Roberts Hi I've made a track plan for my intended 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.

Had a 3x2 N Gauge railway back in the day, and a shed with OO layout at my grandparents. When I was a member of my local club, and access to their library. I found a diagram of a layout I like, to make my own layout. Entry exit tunnels, goods yard, and main line operations. I want to use N Gauge GF stock, but custom track. No way Peco can make natural looking layouts. Recently found some old photos which really gave me what I need to see how it looked.

... "pick-and-place" program such as AnyRail for that. It's true that there are a few Peco-matching Templot templates for download, but I've never suggested that anyone should actually build them or design a layout using them. The only sensible way to use Marcway with Templot would be to use their kits as a source of components for building Templot turnout designs. For more than that you really do need AnyRail or XTrackCAD or similar, not Templot. cheers, Martin. posted: 10 Feb 2020 09:06 from: Hayfield madscientist wrote: Businesses have overheads to cover, plus the cost of design and manufacture "Naw" its good business to allow your customers to plan how they will use your very expensive products, this should be free send me an email when you are ready and perhaps its a bit easier to understand with a quick chat whats to understand, Im confused.
