Are the loads fixed in place or removable?

Well done!!! If you are running DCC, I'd highly recommend the cobalt digital motors!

Will there be painted up samples in Dun Laoghaire?

Make sure you tin both wires well first - heat the big wire and melt plenty of solder into it. For joining bus to droppers, I use solder tags - like these http://www.maplin.co.uk/solder-tags-29815 They are pre-tinned and make life a lot simpler for joining cables.

Lovely work Dave I use a small file on the underside of the rail to rough it up, then tin it with a drop of solder. I then apply the wire, also tinned and simply melt the solder on both wire and rail. Two seconds then hold in place for three seconds and done. You should get a lovely, clean , shiny join (it does take practice though, my first few attempts had to end up in the bin )

I'm looking forward to mine anyway!!!

The MSB price says "Price expected to be £144.99. Pre order today deposit of £25 " I guess the message is 'no one knows, cept maybe Paddy Murphy '

How are they guaranteeing a pre-order price despite a trade price not even being released yet?

I looked at Marcway (and Tillig) but decided the large peco would 'do' http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/5975-marcway-points-and-wiring-them-for-dcc/ - might help?
