Construction progress

The weather over this weekend has been kind and I have been able to make some real progress on the railway with track finally in place.

The blocks all cemented in place on Saturday, once dry the track will be laid

Sunday was a beautiful day and the track laying has started with this point forming the station throat

A short video of a test train over the first section.

This is as far as I got with track laying. I was distracted at times watching the British Touring Car Championship on the TV

Hopefully I will finish the station track tomorrow (Monday) if the weather stays fine.

The first train was going to be hauled by the Ffenor loco No. 2 but it stripped its plastic gear's. A new Andel Chassis will probably be fitted to replace the sub standard IP Engineering one.
