Hello,
        Could anyone identify what types of crossings are shown in this diagram.I am unsure if they are single or double slips or if one is just a plain diamond?

I'd say they were both single slips.
Regards
Raymond

Hi Trevor,

They are both single slips. The marks across between the rails indicate the position of the switch toes (blade tips).

Note that the single slip roads form a trailing crossover for up and down running -- the most common arrangement. If they were double slips, the other slip road in each case would require a facing-point lock.

regards,

Martin.

Hello,
Thanks for the quick reply chaps.They are on up and down lines respectively which would explain the slips to different sides.I just need to convert the complete plan into a Templot template now.:)
