New models released this update:
GWR quarter-mile posts
Set of four editable mileposts. These cover 0, 1, 2 or 3 quarter-mile positions. They are trackside objects and will click
into position next to track. Name each one separately according to the number of whole miles they represent. Use the
‘?’ tab in Surveyor. They are based on the standard GWR type with a length of bridge rail acting as the post and a
wooden V-profile sign mounted above.
The number of quarter miles is indicated by short vertical lines on the lower half of the sign. When naming, Trainz will
check whether you want to give the same name to different posts. This is because, within each mile, four quarter-mile
posts will have the same number of miles. Just click on ‘yes’ when you get this warning window. I use a consist
measuring 440 yards long to measure the relevant distance on the track. On GWR Buildings page.
GER quarter-mile posts
Set of four editable mileposts. These work in exactly the same way as the GWR quarter-mile posts, above. They are
single posts with 0, 1, 2 or 3 dots arranged vertically to represent the relevant number of quarter miles. On GWR
Buildings page as guest.
GWR gradient posts
Set of eight editable trackside objects based on those used on the GWR but suitable for most railways in the British
Isles.
Two posts depict ‘LEVEL’ to ‘1 in ….’ and two depict ‘1 in ….’ to ‘LEVEL’, with the ‘….’ being the editable element.
Two further posts have a single arm, either up or down, the ‘1 in ….’ on both is editable. The final two meshes in the
group are gradient arms alone, both editable ‘1 in ….’. All of these models will attach to the track as trackside objects
at a fixed distance from the track.
To create ‘Up to Up’, ‘Up to Down’, Down to Up’ and ‘Down to Down’ posts position the relevant post with a single
arm, use ‘?’ to type in the gradient, add one of the separate arms along the track a little way, type in the gradient, then
slide the arm along the track until it slots into position to form the other arm of the gradient post. It’s a lot easier than it
sounds! You get the gradient from the track. On GWR Buildings page.
My models are for TANE SP4 and above. Links are to zip files containing the cdp files. Usual apologies for any broken
links or missing material, let me know and I’ll correct them.

St Twynells - my new demonstration route
All of my new models will now be showcased on a special route which I am slowly creating. It is completely fictional
and represents a typical GWR terminus somewhere ‘out west’. I am aiming to include as many of my own models as
possible, and there will also be models from other content creators which are available from the DLS, as well as the
usual built-in content. This route is just for my own use and will not be released.
The name of the main station, St Twynnells, and of all the other stations I intend to model as the route slowly
expands, are all drawn from a small area of Pembrokeshire in south-west Wales immediately south of the line that
runs from Tenby to Pembroke Harbour. It’s an area which I particularly like and, apart from that, has no connection
with any railway lines either built or conjectured. It just provides excellent names for my invented stations.
St Twynnells is an important terminus for the GWR. Apart from the main station there is a spur down to the harbour
where a ferry service will operate to Ireland. On approaching St Twynnells, a line branches off at Merrion Junction to
eventually get to a smaller terminus at Bosherston. At St Twynnells a branch, usually operated by steam railmotors, is
served by its own platform. This branch line to Barafundle passes through a number of small wayside stations, some
of which will have surprising features. Overall, the route will be the ‘real’ railway layout I always wished for but was
never able to build.
