sb67 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Caught up with your thread and watched your videos. It's all looking good and moving along nicely, bu then I wouldn't expect anything else 😃 Nice idea for a plan and a good excuse to run many types of trains or will you keep specific to your area? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold 5BarVT Posted August 26, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 26, 2022 At first I panicked about your raised line over the flap - higher than the hinges I thought. Then I thought a little bit more - hinges are off to one side so it doesn’t matter. Clever! You must have been at this game for some time!!

Andrew P Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Quite a good day in the POD today, I've managed more than I expected with all 5 Points on the Door lifting Flap laid and the copper clad joint ends soldered up and cut, Plus I have laid the 2 on the Main Board. I still have the Gaugemaster DCC 80 Autofrogs to fit tomorrow and then continue to lay the Yard to the Points at the other end. Then it will be a case of fitting the Points Motors, but I will tackle that in a couple of weeks. Edited August 29, 2022 by Andrew P 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) Well today, as expected, I have wired in all the Gaugemaster DCC 80 Autofrogs, and the power to the feeds of the Points on the Lifting Flap. I then set about playing with the Track and Pointwork for the rest of the Yard,so with a lot to do over the next couple of days, I hope to be able to start laying and wiring over the weekend or early next week. NOTE = The Tracks are not aligned or finally pinned in place yet. Edited August 30, 2022 by Andrew P 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
