Hi,

The EM Gauge Society have just published some data tables for various Companies other than GWR. Is it possible to add for the humble user to add switch and crossing data (which will be available on a permanent basis in the program) or is this something for Martin, possibly?

Hi Stephen,

The best answer to this is to create custom templates based on the data, which you can then use in future designs. And perhaps share the files with others via the "Share and show" forum.

I made the GWR data available within the program as an example of what's possible, and because I had the relevant Paddington drawings at the time. But there are so many companies, designs and sizes, where do you stop? The list would be endless. Creating a downloadable library of custom templates is the way to go.

regards,

Martin.

Hi,

I thought that might be the only way to go. I'll do that as and when but at the moment I am only just about starting up again after house renovations, so given the amount of data now available it might take some little time.

By the way I've put some other pictures of the outside single slip on my website if you are interested, one of them just about shows that templot was used.
