Layout Design / Re: My new layout design.

Hi all,
a bit of progress again.
I know I'm jumping around, instead of continuing with the roundhouse I've started something else.
Platform roofs.
I made a jig to make the masts.
First photo.
Second photo the finished mast and the last photo temporary on the platform.

Currently giving my roundhouse project attention.
I want the walls to have brick detail on the interior as well.
So I was considering to use a sheet inside and outside, practically making every wall twice.
So I made a second and held them together, check if there is still light shinning through the plastic. Yes it still shines through.
Got some black paper and checked again, no light.  :thumb:
So I made a wall sandwich.

Hi all,

mounted the last camera.  :thumb:
Then on Saturday evening I decided to run a few trains.
Suddenly I notice that a train goes through a red signal.  :bueller:
Start checking the system and discover in fitting the camera's and wiring them up I broke another
wire. Repaired that and it's working again.  :thumb:

Hi all,

everything is connected and working.  :thumb:
I must just mount one camera now, if you look at the left screen you will notice that you can't see any tracks,
it's currently just connected to test, will mount during the week.

If you go back to page 106 on this thread I posted a pic of the monitor with camera that I had bought and fitted
to the staging yard.
Well I got four more now and wanted them to be inside the frame.
Checking for fit.
All five fitted, now to wire this all up and fit three more cameras.

Hi all,
this is very embarrassing that I haven't posted here for so long.
Done little to nothing on the layout, but did spend some very nice hours just letting the trains run.
....

You have not done nothing - you have tested you track as in QA (Quality Assurance). All good companies does this!

 :thumb: :) :)

Second photo. Marking done.
Third photo. Cut out and first two windows cut out as well.
