What have you used for the hardstanding and how have you secured it? ordinary 2mm Card, and stuck down with a form of UHU Glue.

Hi Jazzer, I'll be using the Gaugemaster Prodigy 2 on this and Mason Street at the moment, I have the ACE SigNaTrack on the 7mm Seven Mills Sidings, and may invest in another one of those later on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted April 23, 2019 Author Share Posted April 23, 2019 Today saw the wiring go in, and a short test was completed. I just need to pick up the Switches for the Points and Programming Track tomorrow now. I also cut the Backscene Boards in readiness for final fitting at a later stage. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was a Flying Lesson out of Goodwood in Sussex for my 41st Birthday, (that's 28 years ago this coming Saturday). We were delayed an hour due to low cloud, and then called back in 15 minutes early whilst over Selsey Bill due to worsening weather, and the Pilot had trouble locating the Airfield, we had 3 aborts coming in. I never did take up the full course, much to my regret. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a Shed like yours mate, can I rent your workshop? And back to serious matters, I've ordered some Yard Lights from China, so should be here in about 4 to 5 weeks. I also need to sort out some sort of Road Bridge from the Fiddle Yard, so may go down the same route as Mason Street, but still thinking about that as well.

Andrew P Posted April 24, 2019 Author Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) I picked up a couple of cheap Hornby TTA's today, they need a re spray into Grey and Kadee Couplings fitted but run well enough. And this is what they should look like once done. Edited April 24, 2019 by Andrew P add words 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
