Since the Brockenhurst Open Day it has been decided to install conventional type fiddle yards.
This is due to fast build up of muck on the Aluminium angle pieces.
Thus I have made two sector plates ,one for each end out of 6mm Plywood. These will be braced at the edges to prevent warping.
I will use Peco 12mm Hom track, as on the layout, which will give the correct height where they meet the running lines. Some form of alignment will be used, I am experimenting with brass tube,soldered to Copper clad paxolin. This will have a length of steel rod and resemble a thin door bolt.
As well as this I have aquired,through e-bay another 3mm kit for an ex-GWR 2-6-0 Mogul. A couple of pieces are missing but price too good to miss. The 3mm Society do the correct 16.5mm wheels, Branchlines 40:1 gearbox and small Mashima motor will complete.
Well off for more Festive Shopping

In recognition of my eldest Daughter's achievement. She is also the one who gave me the push to build the layout.
