Hi
I have two queries in relation to the portion of track in the attachment.
Would the small section of track between the single slip and the RN turnout have been normal practise. It is over 15' long. However, would the track makers have tried to close the gap so that the switch end of the turnout butted on to the exit of the slip so as to eliminate the small length of pain track?
Also would the spacing of the end sleepers of track less than a full panel have been arranged so as to maintain the normal spacing of sleepers at each end. In my case 2'1 7/8" at the ends as against 2'6 1/2" for the rest of the panel?
Regards
Graham
