Reply to "Using Ross Track: How do I do this?"

You sure can cut any track. Atlas has a special set of ties to replace those that you remove and make a new connector end. Gargraves, just slide off\on the ties. I cut FasTrack when I need a special section...and so on...

 

You fake it out in the software by using Atlas or GG flex track if the manufacturer doesn't offer flex.

 

Actually, an easement is not running larger simple curve into smaller simple sectional curves. It is lateral movement of the rails from a straight to reach the beginning of a curve to gradually transition the loco and cars into the curve. It is a compound curve and not a simple curve.

 

is there an easement tool in Anyrail for flex track?  RR-Track has one. I requested that Mixy add one to SCARM. It will be in the next update.

 

The easement is the first track moving from straight to 080. The second track steps with simple curves to 080.

Here is what the easement does:

Dist     Offset
0.00      0.00
6.63      0.04
13.25    0.29
19.88    0.99
26.51    2.34
33.14    4.58

 

Distance from point o in inches and lateral movement from point o in inches.
