CLIFF LEDGE RAIL SPLINE

 
Laying rail track in the real world was at times a slow and extremely difficult task as engineers sought to transverse very difficult and mountainous country. In many cases narrow ledges had to be cut along the sides of deep ravines and gorges. As this was an expensive job the ledges where kept as narrow as possible. Unfortunately TRAINZ Surveyor does not have the ability to lay realistic narrow ledges. They end up unrealistically wide and with the stretched texturing a high standard of realism is impossible to achieve.

By using TRAINZONE's narrow pre-tracked rail ledge splines very narrow ledges can be created to add a much higher level of realism to your layout.

While the rail ledge splines can be used on their own, an even higher level of realistic rugged-country scenery can be created when they are used in conjunction with the cliff splines.

 

The following screenshots are from the sample layout "Clifton County" that is available with the cliff splines.

By combining the Standard Cliff Splines with these RAIL LEDGE Cliff Splines, magnificent track side scenic features can be created

THE USE OF ALTERNATE TRACK

While we have tried to include a wide range of available track with the Cliff Ledge Rail Splines it is realised that many modellers will have different track that they would rather use.

This can be done by simply modifying the track kuid number in the Config.txt file. The details for how to so this are are included on the Download Page.
