Wow look at the transformation! It’s starting to look great. Most photos for me too go the wrong way from my phone, I have to put them in the computer first. ____________________ Chris Teasel Bay Teasel Bay on Facebook |

Photos off the phone seem to post sideways no matter what I do. I have to persuade them to "forget" their origin (no doubt something in the code) and make them believe they came from a real camera. Those from the DSLR and bridge cameras never have this problem. The technique for phone pics is a slightly time-consuming upload via the computer to SmugMug and then downloading back to the computer before using the upload link on this site. Meanwhile the layout proceeds very slowly along and I have now to understand the wiring requirements for a piece of specially-built pointwork. This is a scissors crossover but with one of the four points being a double-slip diamond. It allows two tracks to feed three sidings with entry and exit available in any direction. Once that is working and pinned down the layout should be fully wired and working as regards traction current. The third rail for the passenger line will be a dummy; I have conducted trials aimed at having it live and used for traction feed but our various manufacturer's tolerances and scaling mean that the pick-up shoes are in entirely different positions across the brands. For a couple of metres of visible running line that was going to be too much effort for too little gain and the "live" rail will not be live. ____________________ Rick Layouts here and here |

Hmm - "bonne chance mon ami" - as we French electronic wizards would say. If you need any advice with your wiring Rick, just ask me ............................    ____________________ 'Petermac |

I might need advice on untangling spaghetti. That should be accompanied by a bottle of Laughing Water of course. SWMBO is unwell and is due into hospital on Monday. This gives me a little time at home while she is recovering to both be close to her and deal with matters outstanding on the model without too much interruption. I have taken next week off work so hopefully will be able to make some progress. ____________________ Rick Layouts here and here |
