After the problems of the track testing and problem finding update I last put on I left it for a day or so but did have 1 or 2 comments from friends who told me to check and check and check again my wiring. Ok so I'm a numpty as when I went to check the wires I found that the positive bus wire droppers were wired to the + point on one board and I thought I had done the same on the other board but to my surprise I found that on one board I had done it to the red bus wire but on the 2nd board I had wired the same but to the black bus wire. I've crossed them wires over so I have red/black and black to red and it now works now without tripping the system. I feel like a right dunce. Anyway I went round and rechecked all my soldering of all the droppers to the track and found only 2 dodgy soldering joints which I have now fixed and it runs perfectly at all speeds.

 

So now red faced I'm ready to do some scenic work.

The soldering and wiring isn't that bad it just takes time and you need 4 hands spare. I just stopped concentrating for a moment but it was easily solved just have to remember now that instead of the plugging in the wires red to red I now to have wire it red/black.
