Industrial 2 foot gauge track

[bécasse]

I have provided below detailed track plans for the "standard" track panels for industrial narrow gauge track using a prototype radius of 36 feet (British Standard type 2). The dimensions are given for 7mm scale modellers using a 14 mm track gauge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Components for making this track work are available from KBscale.

 

Note that in the points the track is straight, not curved, through the crossing and that the point blades, together with the length of the stock rails opposite the blades, are also straight. Although this results in "kinks" at either end of the point blade sections, industrial style rolling stock will pass perfectly through points built in this way, whether being drawn or propelled.

Very timely topic for me - I have a package on the way from KBscale with a Lister, some tippers and track components. Have you seen their test shots of the new moulded tie base for points?

A bit late in the day, but merci, Bécasse!  :-)
