This is part one with the BOX file attached. It really needs the BGS file to make sense of it so that is attached to the next message. I can't find a way of attaching more than one file at the moment Jim. |

I can't find a way of attaching more than one file at the momentAnd here's the BGS file. This all started when I dug out some baseboards from the loft which I had made over twenty years ago to carry an S scale dog track. The boards made up into a circle of about eight foot diameter, Once I had looked at the boards, I wondered if they could be used again and possibly in N scale which I've been dabbling in of late. So this is the result. I don't think there is a straight line anywhere in the track. The main radius is at or around 36" radius but drops to about 19" in one or two places with crossovers between two concentric curved tracks. The crossing angle is 1:9. There are three stations - the lower station a ground zero in the top right area, the mid level station with its yard at the bottom and the high level station with its sidings at top left. The hatched area in the centre is hidden and there are hidden sidings there which completely circle the inner side of the baseboards. The gradients will be about 1 in 50 and upwards and the style will be North American. The track standards are FS160 which is 2mm Association standards at 9mm gauge. Jim. |
