Hello
Finally I have faced my fear of the trackwork on Highclere. As mentioned in my last blog entry I really needed to get back on with the layout as it had been untouched since July last year mainly due to the poor running of the layout.
This time I have approached the track with a 'no compromise' kind of thinking and have started working through the first board. I have been checking things like track gauge, track joints, and how level the track is and I have been surprised how bad it actually was! If I couldnt 'tweak' the track into shape then it is being replaced.
This was the first bit of track to come out. The section wasnt very level and I couldnt seems to flatten it out.
This shows how level the track was in places........!!
....so it had to come out.
Some of the points need a bit of TLC too.
Still lots to do but it will be worth it and hopefully help with the fear of exhibiting the layout!
