Sequence of construction on this junction

[Lacathedrale]

Hello fellow modellers, I was hoping to get started on laying some track for my layout today or tomorrow. It is a hybrid of Peco Bullhead and hand-laid OO-SF pointwork. I've laid track in a few scales before and not had too much trouble, but never attempted a three-way or a diamond before. So, with that - here is what I'm dealing with:

 

 

My initial thought is to lay the rearmost route of the three-way and the adjacent vee, but i really have no clear idea!

 

Thanks!

Hi William,

 

I know that I am in 2mm and you are in 4 for this, But some of the build sequence for my diamond, Single slip & tandem are in this thread.

 

Apart from that, posting on Hayfields Hand built track thread mught give a better answer

 

Regards & stay safe

Thanks Ian, we are fellow 2mm modellers too, this is (meant to be) a more expeditious side project   Thank you for the link!

Experience says that it is best to start in the middle and work outwards. Best for most P&C

As Stephen has stated, start with the  centre common crossing of the tandem turnout and then I would work towards getting the other common crossings in place. I also fit droppers as I'm going to the crossings. I use brass lace making pins and snip them off about 10mm below and baseboard and put a square with a marker pen, so that I can spot it again when I do the wiring.
