Good to see that the radical approach is still on going. Looks good so far.

Hi Missy,

Did you keep the funky foam road bed, or have you taken a different approach this time ?

Hi Chris.

 

I have stuck with the foam for the trackbed.

Looks good in that low level shot.

 

When you decided to rip up areas of track, did you consider using easitrac for any of the plain track areas or did you prefer to keep with pcb/code 40 for overall consistency? Just curious to know really...

Hi Pete :)

 

I have continued to use PCB/code 40 for consistency. Although I have some easitrac here I thought it would look odd on the layout without changing everything.

Thank you Tony :)

 

Working on the track and looking back at what I made the first time has been a real eye opener. Looking at it now the track is/was shocking in places and I am not surprised things are/were having trouble running on it. In a weird way its kind of reassuring as I can now see how much my modelling skills have improved since I made the track a few years ago. Hopefully I wont end up doing this again as my skills get better as I get older and more experienced.

Trouble is, by the time you've got all the experience you need, you are too old to remember how you did it!

:rolleyes:

Never has a truer statement been made. You've inspired me to go back and sort out my track work this weekend. One siding has been ripped up and the 3 way is half way to being a reliable runner. Thank you!

Your a quick worker Missy. If it wasn't for the gloss on the track that photo could be the real work in progress. Looks good.
