Tried a thing the other night in TANE - going and overlaying the narrow gauge dock track on a dock I didn't find a standard gauge version of with standard gauge "rails only", and it worked!
Even doing that at around 2 am, it worked!
![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
The reason was I'm using standard gauge trains and wanted SG track, plus, overlaying the 36in gauge track would then look like guard rails.
It took some finagling at the seaward end, strange things happened, but it turned out that inserting a spline point almost but not quite at end provided a way to overcome the mystery extension in the air.
The dock involved is;
Have 2 dock locations, an East dock and a West dock. With finally getting some sleep after doing first one, I forgot which rails only were used and ended up finding a different set for the other dock.
East dock has;
West dock has a built in set;
What it worked to do was;
Run SG track up to the dock track and attach it
Then insert a spline point just a few ties away from dock.
Then delete that tiny section.
Add SG rails only SG from end of that track
Go out a little bit sidewas, click track to place
Then use "Apply Vertex Height" to get end of rails only track spline to same level; in my case it was 05.m
Then use "Move Track" to take railsonly out to end of dock's built-in 36in gauge track.
Click and place.
Then things got weird.
Eventually discovered that lucky placement of a spline point almost but not quite at end of SG rails made the look acceptable.
And then I put a rusty yellow bumper on it because I like yellow bumprs being easy to see & my Dad was in the Navy and metal by the sea rusts.
