Good Morning All,

So I had a little bit of time last night and most of the work I have done on Tuesday evening already.
I wired in all the LED Lights for the Stations interior. I also decided to add lights inside the tunnel.

I just had to glue in the last of the wiring and paint the LEDS.

I think it looks great. There is still a few holes where lights seeps through, but I'll sort those out in due time.

Enjoy the pictures.
Cheers,
Evert.

Good Morning All,

Did a little bit of layout work over the weekend, not much as I was laying laminate floors on Saturday and I had to do a bit of work around the house on Sunday, life  :eek:

But...... Picture one......  :innocent: Yea, can't help myself..... Added another point and a siding. I think it looks good and will give me some more space to play  :biggrin:
I also started to add the signals, I only have 4, so can not do everything. I decided just to do the mainline. (both directions)
Then I ballasted some more of the track and because I fitted lights inside the tunnel I had to add some ground cover and ballast there also.

Picture 2 and 3.... Took the picture just after I finished so everything was still wet.

Regards and speak again soon.

Good Morning All.....

Small update, I played a bit with the wiring to figure out how I want to do the control panel.
Got that sorted and it is with the Engravers at the moment to engrave all the text on to Opaque Perspex. They also cutting the holes for the switches.

Then I fitted 2 more signals and the Station is also fixed to the layout.
I also did the ground cover around the Signals.

Hope you all have a good day and speak again soon.
Regards, Evert  :biggrin:

A little bit of pressure for this young man - his layout will be at the CTSMEE open weekend run by him and Alan Golding.  :bueller:

So, he must hurry up and stop fussing around... :stir: :peep:

And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry

Good Morning All,

Last night I received the control panel back  :biggrin: I think it looks great  :thumb:
I fitted the switches and tonight I will start with the wiring. It's not much so I might be able to finish it also.

Cheers,
Evert.
