Issue 7 Speedlow

Hello again, in this issue I will continue describing how the Speedlow layout track was laid and finalised.

 

Once most of the track was laid down and glued with the Copydex I could then have a bit of a play to with some stock just to get a feel of what the layout would look like. So it was out with the stock I had to hand to put them into the fiddle yard.

These were taken in January 2013

 

Following some stock testing I quickly decided that it would be beneficial to add a second head shunt line next to the one already laid on Boards 4 and 4A in front of the fiddle yard as doing it now before the track was finalised, wired up and ballasted would make things a lot easier. So a further short left-hand point and a new yard of flexi-track was purchased from the SMTF shop. The only variation I made was to lay the track onto medium thickness black finished cardboard and thus making this line sit slightly lower than the front line.
