Help with XTrackCad turnouts

dpgOGR Forum Member

I am attempting to use XTrack Cad design software for my new layout. It is version 4.x. I am using the Gargraves library but it only has 0-100 Left and Right turnouts. How can I get an updated library that has the other turnouts? I found where you can add turnouts but you need to measure the actual turnout in order to provide the angle and offset values. I don't have any of these so I can't measure them. The other available are 0-42, 0-54, and 0-72.

Can someone point me to an updated library or provide the details so I can add them manually?

Thanks!

Dave,

You might want to try the Yahoo group for XTrkCad.

That said, you can try my parameter file. NO GUARANTEES that this is accurate! It is close enough for me. I measured some switches, and used Gargraves specs on others.
