I am designing a stabling layout and initially using straights, curves and turnouts to build and edit the layout. The issue I am facing is that when I complex the mainline alignments the turnouts are removed and replaced by simple geometry, because of…

Hello I have been working today on trying to recreate the functionality of the Network Rail Extensions from PRT - a UK railway localization product add-in/variable. I have created my turnout definition in my Feature Definition, associated it with…

Hi, I am trying to show the turnout sleeper set, including the Last Long Sleeper, in the 3D model for different adjacent tracks. I have used the following workflow. Placing turnout, checked the box " Use Sleepers Stub "when placing the turnout. LLS…

Hi, Is it possible to describe in some way the point that marks the end of the first element (green circle in the picture)? According to the scheme, I think that unfortunately this will not be possible. Points .0, .1, .2 and .3 I can be easily described…

Hi all I am still trying to get used to Openrail and the setup around it, so I recently created a mock-up geometry to play around. And I am encountering a problem I cannot figure out how to avoid/solve. I have created a simple geometry and made…

Hi, I have next question about turnouts. I prepare a library for Czech turnouts. Our turnouts mostly contain two elements in the side branch (arc and line). For example, turnout with ratio 1:11 and radius 300 m looks like this (in direct direction…

Hi, I have next question about turnouts. I prepare a library for Czech turnouts. Our switches mostly contain two elements in the side branch (arc and line). For example, turnout with ratio 1:11 and radius 300 m looks like this (in direct direction…

Hi, I work for an IM and am looking to make some edits to the turnout library. Two questions: How can I request that additional geometries over and above those supplied with the software as standard are included with future versions? Is the Turnout…

Hello, I have a question about points .2 and .3 on turnout definitions. I understand .2 relates to the 'Distance along main line' field when creating a definition, but what is this supposed to align with in reality? I've made the assumption in the…

Hi Forum, Is the new function "Geometry Connector" in OpenRail replacement for former "Connection Editor"? Has anyone sucessfully used it to connect two turnouts not form a crossover on parallel tracks or between two different turnouts (f.x. 1:12 and…

Hi Everyone, I have a problem about annotation for Turnouts. I defined the turnouts in the file. And i want to annotate the turnouts like below. ( turnout import and annotate - 2:07 ) But when i annotate them, it becomes like this I tried…

I'm testing out OpenRail ConceptStation ( 10.00.07.27) and was wondering whether it's possible to import a BRT turnout library (.xml or .txt), or are we limited to the pre-installed ones?

Hi guys, Is there any possibility to create shunt limits for turnouts and displaying the shunt point in the design file? Thx,, WS

Hi! In our desing we are forced to place turnouts on the curve with applied cant/ respective on the transition curve. Profile in the turnouts are calculate using option "Create verticals" from mainline. Cant is applided so it is rotate about inside…

Hi everyone. I have a railway alignment and also many turnouts. I had to revise my alignment's end part and copied that horizontal alignment with different name. I created the new alignment's profile and tried to annotate the turnouts but it didn't. How…

Hi everyone, I created a diamond crossing and 4 simple turnouts. For track-2, it show both of turnuots in profile. But for track-1 it just shows 1 turnout. I couldn't understand why. Can you help me? Thanks.

Last Long Sleeper Location is currently not in use in the S&C Library that Network Rail have provided in the UK. I can see why they have chosen not to use it due to the variation in LLB/LLS placement as a result of bending in similar/contraflexure, as…

I have certain doubts in creating a new turnout in Turnout Library. What is branch element. is it the geometry upto Nose of crossing or heel of crossing. Does it include geometry of the switch. ? There is no option to specify the gauge of rail. The…

I am trying to create a cross over using connection editor tool. But the connecting alignment is irregular (pls see image below). I had even tried with create connection tool but the result is the same. When i use 'create verticals' tool on such connections…

In the connection editor , the connecting elements has an option "Target". This option appears only for linear elements and for curves it appears only if its the last among the connecting elements. I need help in understanding the option and an example…

Dear, I am trying to connect in 2 different radii curve with reverse transition with same langth, how to design id any one give me solution on this. Curve no 1 : R= 126.025 ( Trailing Transition required 25 m) Curve No 2 = 152.075 ( Leading Trans…
