163. A new trolley
... Nice sunny day and six mile walk with dog rounded it off nicely. Rob Hello Rob That sounds like an extremely pleasant day out. I'm not familiar with the Midland 1F but I assume its a tank loco and on the wee side and yes an open cab on a tank engine is a very appealing look. Thanks for the compliment about the Mitchell kit but infact it was easier than the Finney (partly prototype) and in fact both these paragons are very well thought out and, if one is tempted to follow the instructions, then a very nice model results. They just take a long time! If you need another Collett Goods then let me know as I have one going spare (another casualty of changing period) and a Collett Hall with the frames sticking out above the running plate, LMS like, ditto. Incidentally when I referred to 516 class yesterday, I actually meant 517 class, another beautiful small tank engine. I think my 2251 had a seam showing on the top of boiler which I dealt with, with Swan Morton ...
... assemble these products; the miniscule amounts of glue sometimes allows for the joint to be broken if adjustments are required. Otherwise the FUD chair breaks and either needs repair or replacement. A picture to whet your appetites: 100_181516_560000000.jpg...before I sort out the announcement of over 50 new switch chairs to the REA A, B C and D designs. The A switch is available now; the others are awaiting test prints, test builds and (hopefully not too many) changes before being made available. And then there will be instructions to write... After which we'll start on the full range of acute crossings, obtuse crossings, diamonds and slips (the M1 chair required for the latter is available now).

This is fine for me to work on, but it has a massive empty white boarder round it, also not all the plan is required, I just need to know how to crop the plan Please can someone let me know where to find the instructions please.

... . cheers, Martin. posted: 11 Jan 2019 07:29 from: Mike Wilks Hi Martin, thanks for the reply. Having thought about it a bit more let me be clearer:- when I have time I will close everything down, open an IE window and re-install and, if what I thought I saw (no tick box for file associations) is the case, will screen shot and send you- otherwise I will confirm it was there and I was hallucinating. I already understood the clear instruction that it was important the installer is allowed to run unchanged if at all possible and that is what I did.- I think I misled you when I said the .sk5 file opened the browser window- that was already opened by me. However the result is the same- the video player now works in a Chrome window and the only two differences are that I re-installed via an IE window or that I had clean booted So after some wasted time- mine, and helpful support- yours- it's now ...
... will remove all plain track sleepers on a plain track or turnout template. 3. use modify group to match to set all templates to this. 4. the total timber length shown on the storage will be for the 12" timbering. edit: 4a. click normalize templates, click through the dialogs which come up. The figures will then recalculate. 5. reload the backup file. 6. subtract the 12" timbering figure from the total to find the 10" sleepering figure. Do you want a more detailed instructions recipe? cheers, Martin. posted: 19 Apr 2018 23:48 from: Rob Manchester Hi Martin, Thanks for the recipe. Just tried it and it doesn't work as written. As in :- Start with no stored templates. Control is plain track. Insert a turnout in it. Store the control. Go to storage box and look at total timbering length( for my 900mm length of plain track with a B6 inserted this is 3388mm.) Create custom plain track in slot one as suggested. All ...

... the goods trains to shunt around on to keep the main clear. The issues I have: 1. I have made a single slip on the mainline, I followed the video tutorial and I think I have done it right? 2. Because I am running out of space for the goods yard behind the station and cannot move the whole thing up I really 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.

... , etc. This rule produces the classic alternating wide and narrow spacings of track in pairs, as seen for example on the cover of David Smith's GWR track book: In addition to that, track spacing has to be increased on sharp curves to allow running clearance for vehicle overhang. See the tools> dummy vehicle menu item for the tools in Templot to check and adjust clearances. regards, Martin. Martin, Many thanks- that makes a lot of sence i'll work on those principals. I'd found the 'dummy vehicle' instructions on the forum previously, so have made use of those. Are there any normal or standard figures i should be working to for curves- in terms of clearances? I seem to recall reading something previously about some form of approach to a curve as well, which i also need to go find and read up on.

... control template.... Except now I get an error message which seems to imply I do not have enough umph in the system to do the necessary calculations and should maybe reduce dpi etc etc. I've a relatively new laptop with umph and no other applications open at the time so am thinking I might just be doing something wrong in earlier steps when 'by-passing' straightening step.... Any thoughts anyone. posted: 24 Jul 2018 16:07 from: Martin Wynne Hi Steve, The file saving instructions are simply to provide a backup of the various stages in case something goes wrong or you need to adjust something and try again. They are not part of the process and are optional. The image must have been scaled (resized) to match your model scale before you begin. If you are working with the background maps function, Templot does this for you. You can skip the straightening function if the track line in the image is already dead straight AND it is horizontal on the screen. If you do skip ...

Your copy of Templot should update automatically if you restart it and follow the instructions. If you have any problems with that, follow the download links on the web site. This is a maintenance release with only 2 significant changes: 1. the get screenshot map function now also works with the individual NLS "Find by place" map sheets, subject to a few restrictions. All map images are now converted to 24-bit colour depth, removing the alpha channel. This allows much deeper zooming when aligning tracks over them. background> maps menu item. 2. adjacent track centres are now entered in full-size prototype inches instead of model mm. This leads to more friendly numbers, for example 134 inches instead of 44.67mm. Model mm can be entered if preferred by using the S prefix, for example s50 to enter 50mm centres. regards ...
