When discussing baseboards I always fine the word 'lightweight' most appealing.
Speaking of model railways (I didn't start it, by the way) more news on the layout.
You may remember that, after an archaeological dig in the loft, I unearthed some long buried, disused rails. Following these rails to source I found two wires (it is DCC after all) and surprisingly, when re-connected all worked well. Actually one point motor and associated sidings didn't work but re- attaching a couple of floating wires sorted that. I'm really glad I fully documented the wiring.
I have just spent an hour sending a variety of locos pottering here and there - without rhyme or reason - just for the sheer hell of it. After a good few weeks (or was it months) of forced abstinence I thoroughly enjoyed it.
