Wiggling Wires

The last month has almost entirely been focussed on wiring the layout sufficient for something to run on at least part of at at the Hull MRS Summer show on 4th June...

Not the most exciting of photos but here you are!

Winter Progress

It may be a while since we have updated the Blog, but that doesn't mean we haven't been busy...
In the last couple of months work has progressed on several fronts.

Track laying:
Phase one of the track work is substantially complete. This consists of the complex station throat and the platform and storage roads in the station. As previously mentioned we are using the FineTrax code 40 N gauge track. The pointwork is being assembled in situ allowing the  flowing curves to be created. The points can be curved slightly where required by cutting part way through the webbing between the sleepers
The approach to the Station. The middle two roads are the mainlines. You can just see the start of the climb on to the embankment.
