Hello, I am brand new to the world of Templot and coming back to the hobby itself after a long hiatus.
I'm in the middle of planning a 00 gauge GWR BLT of semi realistic design (Some Rule 1 aspects have applied) and started with a basic design using AnyRail.
A friend, who is currently building his own layout and point-work from scratch, suggested the use of Templot to perhaps increase the realistic representation of my layout. By making my own pointwork using existing data on GWR specifications.
I have watched several hours of tutorials and read a lot of the documentation and I am fascinated by the program and the community. However, I am stuck on 2 aspects:
- Wye turnouts (I have one at the beginning edge of my layout and 1 in the good yard)
- Catch points (I have one to protect the main from the goods yard and one from a parcels bay)
I was wondering if anyone can provide some information on how to achieve this best, be it an external book source I should enquire into or a forum post I have missed, or a tutorial on the subject and their creation using templot.
Thanks in advance and I hope to be using Templot for a long time to come!
