Sounds a good reason to get over to Rainhill show. They have not listed any of the OO9 layouts. I had feared it would clash with Wakefield but luckily that is not the case.

they wont as the local 009 group use upstairs at the same time as the show is on you pay for the down stairs show & get the one upstairs for free

 

Hope to get across to the Wakefield show on the friday

The control panel is now wired up I may add 1 more switch so the standard gauge & narrow gauge tracks are not powered at the same time at the moment the standard gauge is not powered I still need to add the point motors & attach the wires to them but the wire is in place I may get this done before Rainhill but as the layout will be a work in progress then it will not matter

Must say what a great bit of work you have done. Really like what you have done, the bridge is superb as is the rest of the layout. I also like the baseboards which you got do you have more details of who produces them?

 

Look forward to seeing more updates and photos.
