  1. 7th servo installed for point. Slow going.

  2. 6th servo now installed for turnouts using MERG servo mounts and MERG CBUS for operating them

  3. Railhead on the outer line extending a metre at a time and yes I did remember to cut out the slot for the point motor piano wire. 

  4. Now I have to remember how to lay some track - its being a while....

      I laid my first track for a decade or so over the weekend.  What a hash I made of it, too!  Back to baby-steps for me.

      Laying 2mm cork over plywood baseboard has proved to be helpful as it takes trackpins. Also soldering the wire drop downs to the underside of the fishplates so there isn't any visible wire showing. Also remembering to put in the track isolators (DC section control) something which is always a pain if you forget them
