Ken Smith built this diamond for the Comanche & Indian Gap Railroad. He used flat bar for all components, with the exception of the short section of steel rail as a transition between the diamond and the aluminum rail.

Here is the material list used for constructing the diamond (either HRS or CRS):

• 1/2 by 1 inch flat
• 1/4 by 3/4 inch flat
• 1/8 by 1 inch flat
• 2 by 1/8 inch flat
