Instead of slowing down nicely the train accelerates. ::)
Back to the drawing board for me.

Turn it around? :peep:

Well that has been corrected now with a second layer of bricks.
So on Sunday I glued down both tunnel tubes.

Then I glued the plaster portal casting into its position.
The wall section is not completed yet and also not fixed to the layout as yet.

Applied some black cardboard between the different lines, so that the lights from
one train passing close to another portal do not shine out of the wrong portal.
Finally one photo from one portal to the next.

Hi guys,
no visible update, but have been doing some testing on my signal system and discovered that my circuit does work with ESU decoders.
Have not given up yet, I will get it to work.

Aloha,
small late night update.
During the week I had glued in the short wall between the new portals.
So this evening I started to cut and trim some plaster wall section to extend the wall a bit higher.
I will then level that in steps and have a trim on top.

Then I also cut, screwed and glued on a piece of wood on the facia to heighten
it a bit.
Unfortunately the wood that I had was not perfectly straight so it need a few more clamps
than planed.  >:D

Hi guys,
question time today.
What do you think looks better?
The two angle pieces close together or further apart so that I can fill it in a bit to make the wall
look more solid.
Photo one or two?
