• Width or length is the dimension the mainline tracks follow along the top of the module — width is used in this document. • Depth is the dimension from the front-edge to the back-edge of the module. • Height is the dimension from the bottom edge to the top edge of the module base (i.e., bottom of Unitrack pieces), not

The following are the basic numbers, translating from ft between tracks to metres between track centres: 6 ft = 3.4 m between running track pairs 10 ft = 4.6 m minimum between sidings

Mar 19, 2018 · 40" from the center of the tie. The top of the tie shall be the narrowest face and/or the horizontal face farthest from the heart or pith center. All rail-bearing areas shall measure as follows: 7" grade crossties shall be 7" x 9" in cross section with a maximum of 1" of wane in the top rail-bearing areas. A maximum of 20% of the
The minimum track spacing can be derived from the loading gauge. The European Berne Gauge has a width of 3,150 mm (10 ft 4 in). The minimal distance to structures on the side of the track is half of it but that is doubled again for double track lines.
Oct 23, 2022 · Track width and track spacing. The track width is measured between the rail heads 14 mm below the top of the rail. In tight curves (less than 200 m radii), the track width is increased by 10 – 30 mm, the so-called track width supplement. The track spacing is the c/c distance between two tracks.
Narrow gauge are characterized by their smaller track width, which is typically less than the standard gauge of 4 feet 8.5 inches. The exact width of narrow gauge tracks can vary depending on the specific application and region, but it is generally around 2 to 3 feet.
Nov 5, 2010 · Wide stop spacing means the opposite. If we are doing a local-stop service, and we assume that people will walk 400m, then the diamonds are 800m wide. If we then set the stop spacing at 400m, the diamond on the left will touch the one on the right. In other words, every point on the line will be in a duplicate coverage area.
