... slip, you can make a double outside slip in the same way. I have no idea if there are any prototype examples of that formation though! Hi Paul, Phil, Double outside slips are certainly found in UK track, more commonly in yards than in running lines. Here is a well-known picture of one. Notice that it is not symmetrical, the left-hand slip road is longer and to an easier radius than the right-hand slip road. Which adds to the fun of building it. double_outslip.jpg There is a picture of a double outside slip in a running line on page 43 of "A Pictorial Record of Great Western Signalling" (OPC).

It is essentially a double outside slip: 2001-07-19.0004.DKW-Baeseler.jpg image from Wikimedia Commons Except in P4, S7, etc., it will be difficult to make an exact model with wider than scale flangeways -- a more usual UK-style double outside slip would be easier: double_outslip.jpg regards, Martin.
