  1. It was the gauge of the Finedon ironstone system and some other lines - 3'3". See https://sites.google.com/site/ingrmuseum/home or better still visit the museum. It's where the surviving meter gauge locos are.

    Thank you!!! I've visited the museum last week-end.

    2 feet gauge is more common in Great-Britain. One meter gauge is more common in France.

    So, why Britishs guys use a metric system gauge in the land of imperial system?

    I've bought a book about Wellingborough quarries. I hope to find an answer.

    I've drawn some signs and mechanical signals to use on this layout.

    I use Fast tracks system to move turnout, pointwork, aiguillage, scambio, weichen.

     

    Aiguille = Point blade

    Pointe de coeur = Frog

    Aiguillage = Pointwork or Turnout(US)

    Appareil de voie = Switches and crossings

     

     

    Be seeing you...

    I've developped an Arduino program to do an automatic circuit with Digitrax Loconet. I built some DCC diode detection PCB.

  5. I like this a lot. The compound point (I think that's what it is?) and crossing make it both compact and interesting.

    Thank you!!! The size of this layout is 2,70m X 0,50m.

     

    Three Way Point maybe?

  6. Thank for your return

    Concerning flangeway standards, I use for my test Atlas SW1200 and Dapol Class 08. But the tie plate design is different in France.

    Be seeing you...
