I'm helping someone out fine-tuning his design for a layout in 0-MF and there is a ladder of diamonds on a curve where the crossing angles are over 1:8.  So the diamonds should be switched.  But I have to place slip roads on two of the diamonds and I wonder if this had been done on the prototype in bullhead days.   I'm interested in how the switches for the slip and the switches for the diamond co-existed.

There were, if I remember correctly, switched diamond slips at Snow Hill but I am unsure if such things were used on main running lines.  I drew up Snow Hill in Templot some years ago including the switched slips in Templot.  Unfortunately I do not have the plans any longer.

There used to be quite a few bullhead double slip switch diamonds at Euston before the last re-mod.
