While I'm still working on mainline laying, here are a few shots of 112 on the 'Enterprise' complete with DT and yes... photos really do highlight just how much work is still to be done

Absolutely lovely. The pipe detail really adds to it! -
Thanks Kev
-
Love the cable trunking - Is it plasticard? Lovely feel to this - more pics please :)
-
Personally, having done this section, I won't be returning to the ballast, brush, wet, drip pva method at all... (other than to touch up areas I've not done yet)
-
(Don't mind the visible cables, they will disappear (like the white card) under a liberal spray of track grime and oil stains )
-
Close up of the point
-
Couple of updated shots A peco long point, looking well, and the final bit of mainline that joins it.
-
Mainline now stretches (single line for now!) from the throat to the DMU junction, and will shortly (tomorrow) get around the bend and over the lifting section... The new ballasting method is working very well with the points.

Just a stunning set of shots
-
A warm welcome Kev - the shots look stunning - especially love the atmosphere of the night shots!
-
Very very tasty looking!!!

Welcome Ken! Any more photos?

Exactly Though of course I have a fear that once the mainline loop opens for business, I may well lose a few months to

I am finding I'm getting faster the more I do But I'd expect to not have -all- the track in place until at least next Paddy's day - and then have a fiddle yard to lay. Then there is the computer control, block detection, signaling, automation, lighting, stock improvement; lighting; shipping; weathering' detailing, then the scenic stuff

All credit to Glenderg (and you Dave) it's your work that's made this layout move from 'technically good' to stunning to look at too! Only about 5 years in the planning Rich And probably will be the same or a bit longer in the building / detailing What better way to spend a decade

Some shots / perspectives of the Blackrock Road Preservation Depot Having secured generous EU funding, the Depot houses a collection of preserved steam and diesels Last shot shows a RTP Bachmann Shed for scale (and an 071)

Yep, gotta love the story around it I can almost smell the sulphur meself
-
I also have the Restoration Depot shed I'll get some snaps of it shortly!
-
Otherwise, I've laid 8 feet of mainline, and installed the two points and a slip just before the curve to the left heading for the viaduct. At this rate, I should have track crossing the viaduct by tomorrow (and then another day to build the mainline bus to power it!)
