Hornby plastic scale track

[Seagull Two Zero]

Hornby used to make a small scale track planner - about 1/400 scale - that worked well to represent 6mm railways and below.

The code on the sprue is L 5686  and it is black plastic lengths of scaled down track that allowed the model maker to plan a track layout and then scale up to 1/87.

Does anyone know the proper name of the product and if its still available ?

Found them !! Track Planning Symbols - R619 CODE.

Wow!
I love it when gamers find an alternate use for a product.

I'm perhaps showing my age here.
The thread title reminded me of a older equivalent.
A plastic template (with pencil width cutouts of various track pieces), which allowed scaled down design on paper.

I think you will find that they are 1/4 scale for the HO/00 hornby track.  This makes them 1:300

Certainly they worked with my 6mm stuff

They will also work with H&R 3mm rolling stock- which as a wee bit of scale creep compared with Oddzial.
The Polish lad has shifted from white metal to resin - even for figures. Fragile or what?

No suitable station in 1/600 apart from Total Battle which is a very small halt. I am scratch building using one of Martin Goddard's ACW buildings as a starting point.

Nice stuff but way overscale - N guage should got ok with 10mm stuff

I bought a load of N gauge track at a model rail convention. Don't have curves/points etc, but it's good enough for 10mm WW2
