Good Morning Jörg......

It came out perfect and is was awesome to help and catch up for a bit.
That's a very nice long smooth curve, long goods as well as passenger trains will look very realistic through there.

Cheers, Evert

Normally I love to do the benchwork, etc, but at the moment I have no urge to do anything. I think the year have just been too long and stressful.

This is the nice thing about this hobby - just let it be till you feel like it... :bueller:

Hi everybody,
been sick in bed with flu so no updates.
Starting to feel better today so did a bit.
Completed the curve coming into the station and then started by
fitting my double crossover.  :thumb:
Then some more points and a few pieces of flex track.
This is what it looks like now.
Power on the tracks as well, so trains are running to test.  :biggrin:

Yes this has been a very stressful year for all of us.
But I must say that this work on my layout now has been the best therapy for me possible.

Aloha,
late evening update, laid some more track today.
Six lengths of flex track and lots of short pieces and three turnouts.
I can now run a loco through the station on two tracks.
Even one loco waiting track is done and under power. :thumb:
