My Class 71 pantograph doesn’t run true because the OHL Catches the support wires! 
 

any help out there?

Sorry for not keeping everyone updated, working, then two sons to look after and driving at the GCR, not much time working on the layout. Finally I’ve managed to get sometime up and….. the layout is up in the garage. Some damage has happen but it’s only where some of the ballast hasn’t drying on to the board. Hopefully I want to get some sort of fiddle yard built and Back scenes fitted slow process. Money is now very tight so trying to save.

Hi guys,

 

52611688379_44027a4a9c_b.jpg

so I’ve made a fiddle yard board! You might be thinking why I’ve made the board like this, I’m going to try to be clever and see if I can put the board in two ways, but I’m still undecided, yet of what to do.

This is where the board will be fitted where the train will be coming off the layout at the point.

Bit of time in the layout tonight back scene now done it’s changed the layout completely! The blue may need to be tone down, I’m sure that can wait.

What about a pipe bridge? The kind where ground-level pipes rise up at 90 degrees then are supported on a lattice girder arrangement? Looking at the picture, maybe there wouldn't be enough space for them to run along the ground in front of the backscene, but it might be workable somehow. Just a thought.
