Worsdell forever replied to Worsdell forever's topic in Layout topics
Got the wood edge around the back of the last two boards last night, filled with snow this morning and now getting it covered with paper, got on to the Darlington & Stockton times now (struggling to get used to them being that way round...)- 225 replies

The front of the layout is now fully covered. And for the next section along the back, I've acquired a copy of the Darlington & Stockton Times...- 225 replies

More land forming. Hammers are very good at holding it down while the glue dries. Run out of Whitby Gazette so moved on the the old East Cleveland free paper that stopped printing 18 months ago. And finally last night, the bit behind the station building.- 225 replies

The first train ran the whole length of the layout from fiddleyard to fiddleyard and back this morning with no great issues, I need to install small bolts to locate the turntables but otherwise all went well.- 225 replies

Second fiddleyard is now wired, nothing has run on it yet but I've had the meter across it and it buzzed when it should, spun it round and plugged it in the other side and it's correctly reversed. It might not be the prettiest wiring but it works! It will be altered eventually when the fourth track is added.- 225 replies

And it's all up, had a shuffle round and turned the boards through 90° so I can get both fiddleyards up. Now to wire that second fiddleyard...- 225 replies

And then there were three. This time I'm going to run the wires across the middle, there's no need to take them to the ends as long as the red at one side connects to the black at the other.- 225 replies

I drilled through the end vertical posts but the inner and diagonals are fabricated around the wires out of plastic strip. -

A little alteration to the fiddleyard, I've added a strip of plywood between it and board one, it's sort of L shaped to provide a slot for the backscene to ho in to. Tonight I've fitted a slightly longer piece of track in the gap.- 225 replies

So, back to the carriages, there's now a respectable set of four. Two, a D18 3 compartment van third and a D14 8 compartment ordinary third that were finished a few years ago. Next is the D5 lavatory composite that is externally finished, needs glazing and seats, last is a D77 5 compartment van third, built many years ago and finished in late LNER condition with electric lights and middle lower steps removed, lamp tops have been added but the steps still need to be added but it has been repainted, lettered and lined. Please don't look too closely at the lining, I'm getting better at it!
