Bah, bah and thrice bah!

I build a diamond crossing (ready-made not available for that angle). I went back a few weeks later and decided I had the wiring polarity wrong on the crossing line, so I unsoldered it all and remade it. Guess what? I was right first time! So I've just had to undo it all again. Bah! That'll teach me to make it up as I go along...



Still, the layout is progressing well. I have found that derailments on points are dramatically reduced if you pay good attention to levels (yes, yes, I know). Get the lines properly levelled, it works a treat.



I still need to convert our A3 to loco drive, though.

Onnacounta it's son Michael's model, was a birthday pressie.

It's nearly Christmas. Maybe Michael would like a new one as a pressie. :-)
