Spline Spots from 2 samples.
#6
Apologies, quick follow up. I realized my example misrepresents the placement. I initially said that overlaps and gaps are expected since the rail segments are offset from the same center spline. Noting that the spline distance will differ from the linear distance between segments. 

Expectations given a pretty harsh curvature.
   

The red dots are the spots computed as you suggested, a relative translation off the spline. The green circles are computed in the same way only offset by half the distance between the red points.

From there, the rail segment origins line on the red line formed from the center tangent and are aligned to lie on the line that would be formed from the two green circles before and after the red center position.

I believe I have a conceptual solution, I'm not just not sure how best to articulate it using Curvy Splines.

Thanks again.
