It denotes the programming track It's connected via a DPDT switch so I can toggle it from main back to programming, etc, so I can drive a loco onto it, flip to programming to interrogate or programme the decoder, then flip it back to main to drive it out again

Cheers Rich, I think I have in my head what it's 'supposed' to look / work like Although adding signals to these baby is on the loooong end of the todo
-
There is physical space to add back in the dock / cement terminal, but I reckon one thing at a time!
-
Here is the latest track plan, showing the larger through station and the 'RPSI' Depot
-
From what I am reading I will need TPSW grids (pairs) before the buffers in the terminus and at every signal / platform end...., then again on the mainline at signals and in advance of crossings, etc. Has anyone any good references, or photos of Irish AWS/TPSW stuff?
-
And the beginning of dummy point motor installation.. Anyone know where I might find details on where the AWS / TPWS and various boxes and detectors and thingies 'should' go?

Two little bits of updates: 1 - IE's new re-gauged MRA's fresh off the boat before a lick of paint

You are flying at some pace!!! -
I think I'd get dizzy trying to stop 4 crashing!!

Was worth a try

Looking brilliant!! How many trains are you running on the same loop there!

At times like this your arms feel the full length!

Small update: Terminus and yards now have been undercoated in a lovely shade of jet black, in advance of platform installation, ballasting and rail painting (in reverse order!)

Wow!!!

The grey box is the stairwell below the attic. The line there will just be a viaduct . There are walls both sides of the grey box.

Using cheap NeoDymium Magnets to uncouple Kadees
BosKonay replied to BosKonay's topic in Tips & Tricks
I'm planning to use them extensively. I've ordered 200 little 3mm cube magnets identical to those in the video. Will report back with my findings! -
I think they are 30tons

Will do Have to finish drawing the freight roads

The general 'plan' of the preserved depot, from left to right, is two carriage sidings (each long enough for 6-7 coaches, a water/coal/depot crane road, two lines to a loco workshop / shed, and the turntable, allowing stock to 'pose' (some of these roads (if not all) will have sheds over them too.) The big space in the corner can house a town scene and I'm contemplating adding a 5 foot curved platform from the lower curved point back to the mainline, so the DMU fleet can drop off day-trippers...
-
As a firm believer in measure thrice, cut once, I've 'flipped' the steam / preservation depot and sheds into where the dock was mooted to go. After some practical evaluation, it makes more sense to have the steamers on the same level as the terminus (otherwise they may not make it up the incline to run specials! ) The shorter trains will also look fine on the 3 foot curves there. It means I can re-do the left hand design now to add a three line under gantry crane dockside terminus with a cement plant to rear ! (eventually I may run the risk of actual modelling soon!)
