In 2022 I was commissioned to build a number of O scale track components for another modeler. The total project encompassed 4 turnouts, 2 custom designed diverging track sections, 2 custom designed bridge track sections and several turnout switch stands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve posted some highlight photos below, but if your interested in more information I kept is a diary of the progress on that project.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A custom diverging route track section to marry up with #8 turnouts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Parts of a template I made to verify girder spacing before constructing the bridge track. I made a couple of these templates to send to the customer so we could verify the measurements of the bridge cross beams to determine where bridge ties would be placed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
