Some of the earlier pages in that topic are now out-of-date.
To allow for the wider model flangeways and deeper wheel flanges I have needed to increase the number of chair types in the V-crossings, and modify the prototype chair designations:
That's a total now of 25 different chair jaw types, which has filled the space I allocated for all the chair jaw types in the BOX file.
And we are still lacking some tickboxes to swap between slab&bracket and solid cast A chairs, and loose jaws for them.
Which means there is no existing space available for the K-crossing chairs. Which means a significant BOX file format update will be needed for the K-crossings. Which means I ought to do that now so that all the chairs can use the same updated format from the start. Which also means another version bump to 239a next time. Which means more work before I can get on with these crossing chairs. Decisions, decisions.
