I managed to weasel about 10 hours this weekend in the shed, and progress has been very good, although I could easily put in another 10 hours for wiring and installation of Tortoises. Here are few photos of where I am up to:
The overall shad taken from Jonestown Junction. The long mainline run along the left hand wall and back down the peninsular is wired up and gives a great mainline run. The points in the bottom left of the photo are ow installed and just waiting on the Tortoise to go in.
Another shot of the overall layout. A little messy and I keep moving my work space to suit progress. The large space down the left will be Jonestown Yard (6 track, on layout staging/fiddle/functional yard).
Jonestown Junction. The outer loop is the main and the inner is the Grain loop. Junestown Junction has a wye. Why? Because I can! The bottom left of the photo is a dead end leg of the wye and will go to a small steel siding, but it will also allow me to put in a lift out bridge to allow continuous running on the layout, as it is built as a point to point design.
Jonestown Junction again, but you can see the points on the right which will swing trains into Jonestown Yard.
Enjoy!
