Good Morning All,

So, last night I decided I have to take on the wiring for the points  :eek:
8 points is 16 wires (blue, left and rights) and 2 power (grey and yellow).

I made up all the wires for the external plug and solder everything together and fitted the Marklin connector plugs for the point boxes.

10PM power was going off so I had to stop there for now.
Tonight I will connect all the yellow power wires and then I can test  :biggrin:

Cool, speak again, Cheers, Evert

Good Morning All......

Electrical work is done for now......
Everything is connected up and I started to test last night.  :biggrin:
Looks like everything is working well.
I also added a isolater between the inner and outer loops so I can run both controllers on the track or one on catenary and oe on the track.
Very cool......  :thumb:

Cheers, Evert and hope you all have a great day and weekend.
Speak again soon.

Hello All.......

Right, so I have been playing with the idea to re-build this layout.
I want to recreate it using Plexiglass  :biggrin: Think it will give an awesome effect.

Then I also received a Marklin mini-club turntable as a gift. So I want to incorporate it into the layout.
So here is my December Holiday project  :innocent:

I fanally managed to buy the Plexiglass.
3 different colour Blue and Milky White, all 3mm thick.
