1. Yeovil Pen Mill in EM - curves of varying radius

... now. regards, Martin. posted: 11 Oct 2013 09:36 from: Andrew Duncan Hello Martin Many thanks for this....the flow of the junction in particular looks really beautiful if that isn't a slightly strange decription for some bits of wood steel and castiron.... Andrew posted: 12 Oct 2013 00:40 from: Martin Wynne Hi Andrew, I have dabbled on a bit further. I adjusted the shape of the island platform to better match the photographs: 2_111918_200000001.png 2_111918_190000000.png 2_111917_460000004.png 2_111917_450000001.png 2_111917_460000002.png 2_111917_460000003.png 2_111917_450000000.png 2_111934_380000000.png This is all very cramped. There was a trailing crossover on the right which was ludicrously sharp as drawn. To ease it I have moved the running lines and the goods shed further into the corner. Unfortunately this means that the trailing connection across to the down line has forced the down platform much shorter. It is now barely 4ft long. That connection may have to go. I will post the files shortly. regards, Martin. posted: 13 Oct 2013 10:41 from: Martin Wynne Hi Andrew, ...

2. Diamond-crossing on a transition curve for Yeovil Pen-Mill

... the prototype? Lots of Yeovil pictures here, but not the goods shed apart from photo 92: http://www.southsomerset.gov.uk/media/348971/railways_of_yeovil3.pdf I found this model picture, with a train through the goods shed but with no apparent access to the platform inside it: http://www.weymouthmra.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/GoodsShed.jpg Andrew's original sketch plan is here. The track spacing through the goods shed seems a bit wider than 6ft-way: gallery/2 /original/2_111934_380000000.png regards, Martin. posted: 15 Jan 2015 12:02 from: Matt M. Hi Martin, You empty the wagons on the track nearest the platform first and then open the doors on the other side opposite the second track. Then put little gangways between the wagons and carry the goods through the first wagon onto the platform.
