DESCRIPTION

Every piece is built like real yard track: standard gauge, 136 RE rail canted 1:40 on double-shoulder tie plates, two cut spikes per plate, box anchors, six-hole joint bars, 7 x 9 in wood ties at 19.5 in centres and a ballast bed with 2:1 shoulders. The turnouts follow the No. 8 geometry: 16 ft 6 in switch points, a rail-bound frog with guard rails, switch rods and a ground throw stand.The pieces are modular: each one starts where the previous one ends, and two curves bring a turnout's diverging route back parallel at 4.52 m (14 ft 10 in) track centres. Made for railway scenes, train yards, industrial sites, games and visualisation.

Contents (7 pieces)

  • Straight track 39 ft (11.89 m)
  • Left curve and right curve 39 ft, radius 190.4 m (3.58 degrees each)
  • No. 8 turnout left hand 117 ft (35.66 m) with an animated switch stand
  • No. 8 turnout right hand 117 ft (35.66 m) with an animated switch stand
  • End of track 39 ft with a bumping post and middle rails
  • Bumping post on its own, to bolt onto any straight piece (origin on the track centre line at the top of rail)

Animation

  • Each turnout is thrown by its hand lever: frames 1-40 to the diverging route, frames 40-80 back to straight.
  • The target turns (green disc / red arrow); the crank, connecting rod, switch rods and points follow the lever.
  • Every moving part is a child of its switch stand, with its pivot on the real axis.

Model

  • 69 objects, 159,554 triangles (87,853 faces), 90,949 vertices in total.
  • Triangles per piece: straight 8,900 - each curve 8,900 - each turnout 58,596 - end of track 13,254 - bumping post 2,408.
  • Clean polygon models: quads and triangles, no n-gons, closed shells, sharp edges with weighted normals.
  • Real-world scale in metres; the pieces are laid out side by side with the lowest point at Z = 0; overall 36.21 x 48.27 x 2.75 m.
  • Each piece is a hierarchy under its ballast object, whose origin sits at the top of rail at the start of the piece: snap the next piece's origin onto the joint.
  • Named parts grouped in one collection per piece.

Textures (PNG)

  • 10 tileable PBR texture sets at 2048 x 2048 with world-scale UVs: rail with a polished running band, creosoted ties, rusty steel hardware, granite ballast, cast frog, painted switch stand, target enamel, bumping post paint.
  • BaseColor, Roughness, Metalness, AO and Normal maps (OpenGL and DirectX) for every set.

Formats

  • FBX and glTF 2.0 with the turnout animation, OBJ + MTL (static) and Blender 5.2, each format zipped with its textures. No plugins required.
  • The textures also come in their own zip.

Notes

  • No brands or logos. Lighting, backdrop and cameras are not included.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
