Cleaning of locos and rolling stock has been ongoing, plus using the new mini vacuum to clean up loose dust and grit. 

Started work on my CBus Canpan after deciding that this would be better than using the Canace8c as that doesn't have enough inputs. Work has slowed down a bit on the cbus but that is because i now have trains running. Plus i wanted to get the corner boards in before working out where the control panel is to go.

So for a week or so i have been thinking about the corner baseboard and what it would sit on. Building it was easy, 9mm ply and softwood frame, glued and screwed. Remembered to drill holes in the frame for the wiring. Luckily we are demolishing the garden shed outside and in it were some shelves with wood brackets which i removed and transferred to the loft  I like reusing stuff. Plus the screws were all in good nick.

So i have the layout back to the 2009 length (but with much more detail than back then). Long enough to run trains in and out. So i had an operating session with a couple of two coach passenger trains laid on some temporary track

Oh yes and i also added the disused railway bridge but this probably won't go here as it doesn't tie up with the upper track layout
