  1. So after some playing around with flexitrack and standard turnouts I have come to the conclusion that fully handbuilt is the way to go at least for the points! It's been a while to say the least since I used Templot, but managed a first go at roughing out a plan last night. As you can see all I've done is overlay some OO track over the N (for 00-9) so far. need some help I think from @martin_wynne to create some turnout templates with a small enough radius and large enough crossing angle for my purposes. That will come later. The section of dual gauge is far too tight, I'll need to break it up into sections so I can ease that curve. Will mean that the rest of the loop will be tighter but the NG stock can take it!. Next steps? I want a stub siding where the "a" is on the plan, will be fun fitting that in but I need somewhere to park a standard gauge loco for shunting purposes.
  2. We are getting there. A quick concentrated burst of energy and the Easyrail design is now Templotized: Major differences between the Anyrail version and the Templot one is that the track centres are reduced fra the Tillig standard (59mm) to 50 mm. The whole of the main line section is now on a gentle curve of about 43' in radius :-) Which is still sharper than in reality. The main line curve was 70 chains, Which by my reckoning is about 60' in 4mm to a foot. The whole of the branch station is pushed back a bit as it was in reality compared to the original Anyrail version. Update I wasn't finished anyway. After playing with the dummy vehicles that Martin told me about, a bit I decided that 50mm was too close on the sharper curves. I might want to use rule one and run HST's with mark3 coaches. and they did not fit 80cm curves at 50mm distance. but they do now that I have stretched the curves to 59mm This plan is very simple with nothing other than turnouts and crossovers. so I know that I am only scratching the surface on Templot. Every time I want to do something new I find that there is always a way, it’s not just always, well to be honest its NEVER the way you’d think. But then I think of the age of the software. If it was written in the late 70’s, then it predates the IBM PC. What hardware was it written to run on? I would love to have seen in then It must have been cutting edge in its time. I suspect that the maths involved are still cutting edge. But the GUI…
  3. I've been trying to get my head around using the various software available for planning and controlling layouts, namely Templot and JMRI. I've mostly figured out Templot now I think. A rough plan has been drawn as below: I've been trying to figure out making it a bit more condensed (due to space restrictions) by using a crossing/slip, but haven't quite gotten it as one bit is misaligned. Being full of cold I'm not able to concentrate now to fix it,but I'm getting there at least! I'm not 100% sure which works best at present though. Seeing as I'm going with EM Gauge, I wish to keep the number of points as low as possible as I've yet to attempt to build any, so the double slip/crossing might be more complex than i can manage to build. We'll see though. I have been looking into affordable ways to go DCC and have found the possibility of a SPROG 3 + Raspberry Pi + JMRI. I already have a spare Raspberry Pi left over from when I upgraded to a Pi 2 for my media centre, and JMRI is free. So only the SPROG 3 (and possibly a wifi dongle and power booster) to buy at around £60, which is about affordable if I scrimp for a couple of weeks. The SPROG will also be useful as a programmer at a later date when I hope to get an NCE PowerCab. Figuring out JMRI will take a bit more time I think, but I think I've partly gotten the hang of how bits of it work, but until I have some kind of controller to go with it I can't make much more progress. Finally I've made the decision that getting the boards laser cut by Tim Horn feels the best bet as I'm not really that confident of my woodworking skills, and haven't really the space for that sort of working to some extend. The prices Tim's quoted are affordable if I spread a module out over a few months or so at least, so I can get one board started then order another later, knowing they'll interlink. The plan is still to keep the boards plain with all buildings and signals etc removable for safer storage. I'm thinking of getting the boards double depth to allow storage when in use for setting up items for the fiddle yard. The plan is to use cassettes rather than have a dedicated fiddle yard board made up, thus saving cost of some track. UPDATE: It seems that a new Rapsberry Pi Model B 3 has been released, featuring same chip and graphics as the Pi 2, but with built in wifi n and bluetooth 4.0. That could well be just the ticket with JMRI and mean no need for a seperate dongle for the wifi. A bargain at £35 too! UPDATE 2: there is now a layout thread for this layout here. There is also a thread for what I'm working on atm here.
  4. I've spent this afternoon trying to draw up a plan for the new layout. I'm waiting for PPD to come back with an etch for the narrow gauge Ruston and felt like an afternoon in front of the PC. Having received the structural engineers report which means that hopefully we should soon get a quote from the builder I hope this isn't tempting fate. I started off taking a scan of the OS map into Templot and then trying to draw track over it. This is an interesting task as I'm sure that what you think must be the positions of railway features, particularly things like the ends of points aren't always easy (or possible) to spot. It seemed a much better plan to generate the overall lines of the track and then try to fill them in getting Templot to sort of the geometry. The result is a track plan, over a map with some kind of theoretical baseboard edge around it. I've curved the line so that it will go around the room, planning to use the over-bridge as a scenic break on the right hand side. At the left hand end the line curves over the bridge and then I intend to put a level crossing in. There was one just off the map which made for some interesting signalling as the gates had a lever frame which slotted the distance signal and the starter at that end of the station. I've also made a few bits of 'selective compression', I've twisted the goods yard slightly and also pulled the little stream on the right hand side a little closer to the station to try and keep it relative to where it crossed the tracks. I'm also trying to work out how to get a little siding down to a fictitious mill. The plan being that it will give me a 'flight of fancy' whereas the rest of the layout can be firmly based on Clare. I had a question for the prototype experts on the Stour valley line. Clare had a coal siding (originally a couple with more than one merchant). How was coal dealt with? I've not seen any pictures of mineral trains on the line so was the coal just brought in and shunted with the pickup goods? (talking early 50's) Finally - in other shocking news I had fun putting together a Rumney models underframe. This is the clasp brake version which I thought would go nicely under a Parkside shocvan. Trouble was that all the photographs I could find on Paul Barlett's site showed that the clasp brake versions were all on BR Plywood bodied vans, while the Parkside model is a planked version. Cue lots of fun with filler, scrapers and fibre-glass brushes. The chassis is so nice that I'm not quite convinced the body does it justice. Still I'll try adding rain-strips and transfers and see how the body looks when it is suitably weathered. One thing I did notice from the photographs was that the vertical stripes indicating the shock absorbing were rarely anything other than hand painted. David
  5. Now, I am sure there are lots of improvements to be made and I think there may also be a few hidden errors, but I am beginning to understand Templot and have drawn up my initial interpretation of the branch line terminus layout. The branch line enters the station at upper left (the lower track is a headshunt) with the single station platform top right. The release loop has an end loading dock at the right hand end. The third track down passes through the goods shed and also serves the cattle loading dock. The bottom siding serves the coal merchants and gas company. The short spur to the left was to the small engine shed. The layout is 9ft by 2ft in three 3ft by 2ft boards. Plus a fiddle yard. As drawn there is not enough space for both cattle loading dock and goods shed, but there could be if the two turnouts circled in red were to be collapsed into a double slip. I know that double slips are not a feature of small, insignificant branch lines, but this has to be the one major concession I need to make. The problem is, I have yet to work out how to make a double slip in Templot! For some photos of the prototype: http://warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/gwrss539.htm http://warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/gwrss538.htm http://warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/gwrss1002.htm http://warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/gwrss950a.htm And an old survey map: http://warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/gwrssmap.htm
  6. Although I already have Peco track for Shipston, I am slowly but surely moving toward a better looking OO-SF look and design. Several years ago I used Templot for a while, working under a PC emulator on my Mac (I have been a Mac user since 1992), but the emulator was expensive to upgrade and really didn't seem to be that reliable. Templot fascinated me in that it appears to have a steep learning curve for those of us who have done a lot of CAD and vector based drawing on computers. This is because it has what could be called artificial intelligence based on the inherent design of points and switches. It controls the mouse rather than the other way round, might be one explanation for what it does. The ability to plot out accurate templates for building custom track is the end product. Which means that Templot and self made track would be a very good option for Shipston. Back in the 1970s I made quite a lot of track using bullhead rail and PCB sleepers. So I asked a few questions on the track laying forum and got some strange answers. The reason for this was that I had asked the question of where I could source "PCB sleepers". The answer was that they are not called that, they are "copper clad sleepers". Well, so they may be today, but all those years ago they were made of printed circuit board, which, of course, happens to be copper clad fiberglass. The PCB term continues to be used in North America to this day. So, where do we go from here, you might ask? I have a Mac, so how can I use Templot? Happily Martin Wynne came up with a solution which did not involve either me buying a Windows machine or him porting Templot over to OSX! I had never heard of WINE, WINEBOTTLER or CrossOver, but these are the inexpensive solutions for running some (not all) Windows software on a UNIX based operating system (Linux or OSX). I have downloaded a 14 day free trial from CrossOver and also have the updated Templot2. So far, so good, Templot runs very nicely under WINE. All I have to do now is climb the relatively steep learning curve and design the track layout in Templot. Retirement is proving to be a very busy time!
  7. I have now completed most of the trackwork on the existing boards with only the South Exit turnout to finish the second phase of templot. The latest build consists of 8 turnouts, a Double Slip, 3 Way turnout and a catch point. Phase 3 will be the 2 new boards - to be constructed - one at each end of the layout which will form the scenic breaks. One will be Lawrence Hill Junction itself, with the road overbridge and the other Days Road Bridge at the rear of the shed. Lawrence Hill Junction signal box is now positioned on the layout - it is still removable - and I have constructed a model of the timber framed earth bank which protects the rear of the signal box - the surface has yet to be detailed. Here are a few photos:-
  8. A few weeks ago I received the second phase of Templot from my good friend Morgan consisting of the south exit including a single slip, Lawrence Hill Junction and some modified trackwork that goes behind the junction signal box to the shed. In the prototype the double track lines, from the Junction, that run behind the junction signal box operated as two single lines, one to St.Philips Station and the other to the Carriage Sidings, St Philips Goods Yard and the Cattle Dock, however for the model the trackwork has been modified to give me an additional exit track out of the roundhouse whilst roads to the carriage sidings [ they will not be modelled ] are represented going off layout. Having laid the new Templot I made the short sections of trackwork into the front of the roundhouse followed by the completion of the two coal sidings with their buffer stops. Following this I had a surge of enthusiasum and started on the turnout by the office and then the tandem three way to the carriage sidings the latter shown on the assembly board..............
  9. After using Xtrkcad and other layout design software I've downloaded Templot to try. I'm still getting my head round it at the moment but have made a start on this..... The above is a screen shot of my attempt to draw some track work for Penmaenpool MPD. Not bad for about 30mins work, I still have a lot to learn about this software though, I'll have to keep looking at the tutorial videos! All I really want to do is produce some templates for the turn outs, I'm not too bothered about doing the complete layout. So, it's back to the drawing board (or in this case keyboard, screen and mouse!) for some more practice. Thanks though to Martin Wynn for making his software available. cheers! Frank
  10. a bit of a problem getting decent pics in this small scale, suppose I will get used to it! - the goodshed will be on a plinth/platform which will make it correct height, just checking clearances here. Sea wall progress- foamboard or plywood has been used for support on top of which is Slaters 4mm dressed stone, I've gone a scale up to get those 'big stones' effects you get with large sea walls. The gaps are slowly being filled with scrap polystyrene and/or pink foam - messy! need the vacuum close by... Onced finished the joins were tidied up in the plasticard, handy to keep an eye on this as they can move a little as the glue goes off, the glue drying is speeded up by leaning the whole board end on up against the radiator, once glue is dry any gaps in plasticard can be gone over with a little pva or filla according to size of gap. Need some ideas now for constructing the train shed, probably the largest & most complex building to be done! -any suggestions of sources of good pictures or even plans would be great, even the similar ona at Macduff would do, as there is no way in either trackplan or scenics that this will be a faithful reproduction of Banff, its just 'Banff-themed' Buchan Bay is an idea I've had for a name but don't know if it'll stick! - or maybe Port Buchan.
  11. Refined the plan a little, with some assistance from Anyrail to get a quick sketchup of the platforms, signal box and a few trees Excuse the scaled up Skaledale platforms! and there will be an overbridge on the extreme right which will form the scenic break Still refining the point template to better match the Waverley kit template, I will scan the actual template in and then bring that into Templot to match up as best I can.
  12. Once I'd took the decision that I wanted to handbuild all the track a Templot license was bought. Here's my first effort at a track plan I'm sure I can add more detail etc later, once the learning curve drops of the vertical Scalescenes signal box is about done, needs a chimney and lever frame adding etc Now, I must get up to Marcway for some more copperclad and code 124 bullhead rail
  13. Spent a pleasant hour or three doing the basic Templot plan for Balcombe station yesterday, using the 1910 25-inch OS map as an underlying picture shape together with some photos in the 1950s to modify some of the detail/errors in the map and changes due to the subsequent elapsed time - notably the change in position of the trailing crossover between the two main lines from the platform area to north of the entrance to the down refuge siding. FB on the main line (thanks to Martin Wynne for pointing me at the correct switch option ) - nice D12 crossover! - and BH in the yard. Will probably leave the detailed tweaking until we get the available photos from Lens of Sutton. At full size this bit alone is about 9m long - but we should be able to compress it a bit by reducing the length of the two refuge sidings.
