To-day I finally managed to get the two new street lamposts correctly wired up after several failed attempts. I had got one to light up, but the other one didn't, not because it was wired the wrong way round, but because of a faulty connection and, possibly, a slight fault in the post itself.I say getting closer, because the stage has been reached where uit can be said that the layout is almost finished I suppose that you can never say that a layout is finished, because there are sdtill umpteen details to be attended to, somr will be attended to, but others perhaps not. After eleven years at the job and with ever poorer health, I am beginning to get a bit tired. I may have a look at modifying some of my HO rolling stock, although I don't know whether it will be worthwhile.
