Xmas Social - Slattocks running again!

So 18 months after we started digging it up we now have two line running on Slattocks again!

 

Here are a couple of poor videos of the occasion. The Pannier was on DCC and the other locos were running on DC.

 

The new track and ballast has really improved the ability to take closeups on the layout without the basics looking bad. The missing bits can be filled in now that the droppers are in and the cess installed up to the shoulder.

This LMS pairing from Dick Petter was in the display cabinet at the Manchester Show and had a good run on the layout before posing on the bridge while Dick got some awards for it!

Just the point motors to install on the mainline before we do the other lines off the junction and also the goods yard.

It is a very satisfying moment when things start to move beyond hand shunting. So another 18 months and it will be completely finished!? ;)

 

Regards,

 

Nick.

Looking good Craig - the same number of steps forward as have been taken backwards.

 

Hopefully with the flaking paint issue firmly buried, the blockage on construction can be removed. When shall I tell Terry to book you in?
