I have done a temporary loop so that I can run trains around again.
I will leave this while the main station is being built so that I can if I so desire just
sit back and watch a few trains run.
As you can see I just stacked this on top of the existing loop by extending the treaded rods.
This will be removed at a later stage.

Naturally I had to do a test run.

Here comes the Big Boy.
Second photo he's on his way back having successfully gone around the loop.

Thanks.
I've enjoyed building it so far and now I'm enjoying just sitting back to watch a few trains running.
Also servicing and repairing a few Loco's.
