Wagons Also Spin

Actually that's a lie because although last night saw the wagon turntable installed it is permanently fixed in line with the main siding.

The outer slots are from when the turntable would have been broad gauge. Information that I have been able to locate suggests that the castings that formed the outer ring were hacked on site when the gauge conversion was made.

The wood deck is removable for the moment to facilitate painting. It also requires the planking scribed in.

 

The eagle eyed will notice that the crossing beyond has lost all it's rails. That is due to me deciding that they would not have been check rails in such a diamond and ripping them out. I need to re-fix just the running rails through in both directions.

 

I'm still awaiting new raile supplies, but there are just the two sidings to finish laying now. I've sorted the wiring diagram (I think), and have started drilling for dropper wires.
