[quote user="vsmith"]<p>...................................................</p><p> I would be interested to see how your layout as planned would translate into a program using Autocadd. I tried but my take was as best I could get and still stay within the 8' square area.</p><p>............................................................. </p><p>[/quote]</p><p> Hello Vic,</p><p> </p><p>Our layout designer says:<br /> </p><p>There would be no difference between AutoCadd and CADrail; a tangent track of 300mm is precisely the same in AutoCadd, this also applies to a 600mm curve segment of 30º. We have 6 different makes of track for 45mm gauge track planning. Choice is up to the end user or depends on the application i.e. North American or European.<br /> </p><p>The turnouts are shown as the projected tangents, this shows at a glance how steep or shallow a turnout really is.</p><p>The track material in question is LGB, turnouts are R1 types (600mm rad).</p><p> </p><p>Best regards</p><p>ER </p><p>PS the layout consists of four segments, each measures 1500mm by 800mm<br /> </p><p> </p>
