Heworth Sidings - Update - 15/10/2012

Hi,

 

We've really been running round in circles since the last post, but in a good way, as the End Loops have now been completed and the layout is operational.

 

Saturday was our groups DCC meeting and it was an excellent opportunity to setup all the modules and see how things operated. Here's a short video showing some of the action.

We had very few problems with the layout itself, most of the issues surrounded the control of the layout and difficulties with throttles etc, but these were sorted before the end of the day. In fact the only real problems with the trackwork were a few point motors where the operating rods hadn't been cut short enough. These will be sorted for the next group meeting which will be our clubs Open Weekend on the 27th / 28th of October (link below for those interested).

Cheers, Mark.

Very nice progress - looking forward to seeing this in the future! Love the sweeping curves at 3:00. And the 37 on tanks of course. Graham

Cheers Graham, The 37 belongs to one of the group members involved in the layout build and the video doesn't do it justice. He needs to run a weathering class for the rest of us ASAP!

The rake of TEAs should be making an appearence at our open Weekend this Saturday and Sunday. I can't guarentee the class 37 will be rostered for it - a class 60 might make an appearence instead.
