Here is an example type 2 curved scissors crossover.

EM gauge

6ft-6in way  (46.67mm centres)

outer radius 3000mm.

B-7.5 turnouts.

type 2 means the crossing entry straights have been extended to put the diamond V-crossings clear of the turnout curves. The diamond then becomes an ordinary regular-pattern diamond-crossing.

diamond created by pegging crossover roads onto CESP (on a curved scissors this is better than using the branch track function).

Hi Martin,
The box file has been downloaded several times but no-one has yet given any feedback about it. I for one would like to say thanks very much for this.
I have been pondering over a problem with a courved double slip where there isn't really enough room for the blade tips to move. I keep comming back to look at this and though it would probably take up more space and require a redesign of the surrounding section of track, I think it would be a better solution to my problem. And I should be able to make a better, neater job of building it.
So, once again, thanks very much for this.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks.

The reason no-one has yet replied is that they are waiting for the tutorial about it which I promised Mark. :)

See:  topic 2165 - message 14427

It's not forgotten Mark, I just seem to be accumulating more and more half-finished stuff these days.

regards,

Martin.
