Welcome back again, Capt Nick. I found when I upgraded my camera it highlighted the layout's faults areas for improvement even more!! What developments have been happening layoutwise?

What a absolutely beautiful layout your building. I spent my early years in the area you are modelling & it certainly captures the feel of the area well. The trackwork is absolutely first class work, I wish I was that good.

I have been upgrading my fixed rakes of coaches with Hunt's couplings and Kadees at each end. I have also modified some of my locos with both Kadees as well as to accept Spratt and Winkles as all my wagons are S&P fitted. I'm quite pleased with the result.

I'm also, frustratingly, still sorting out some track running problems. This afternoon , I've started having ago at making some ratio signals which I will try to make operational using servo motors and a suitable control board. I did have some signals made a few months ago but I'm not too happy with them.

Onward and upwards as they say!

Hi Simon. Thanks for your kind words. The track is not my work. Having it made was a retirement present to myself to get started. Ten years on, I'm still beavering away at it but I'm rather slow at getting things done..

 

Regards
