Trackwork complete - board #2

I managed to keep the momentum up and have all the extra track for board #2 built (remember board #2 used to be the original board when Fourgig was just supposed to be a demo/micro plank)

Sleepers are gapped and tested, just the droppers to add and then I can start laying. I have to dig out a little ballast at the end of the existing track where the tracks interlace and get some cork glued down first.

So, I only have the engine shed road on the half scenic board #1 to build and half of that is occupied by the inspection pit so it's predominantly straight.

I have just enough rail left to add full check rails to the inset sections, so adding the infill should be simple. I'll add these once the track is fixed down.
