... loose fishplates). Switch stock rails staggered one joint spacing. Switch fronts timbered with 2 timbers. Switch sizes and V-crossing angles can be combined as required, but the sizes shown are close to "natural" and convenient. The longer sizes are intended for curving as required. All V-crossings in the file are curviform pattern to match typical n.g. practice, but will need to be changed to regular or generic pattern to make crossovers. File is for 15mm/ft scale, with quoted radii accordingly: fn3_15mm_samples.png Download the file from fn3_15mm_samples.box (In Firefox, right-click and Save Link As...) Here's a picture of a 2ft-6in gauge V-crossing which I used for inspiration. Notice the rail joints in the stock rails aligned with the wing rail front joints. Templot doesn't show these, so they can be added by hand on the prints. There is no evidence here of closed up joint spacing, just the reverse in fact. Narrow-gauge track tends to be like that. The check ...
