Board cleared and extended ready for testing 

[Tonytramman]

Need 3 tubs to hold it all now!

1st dcc test went well..

[Tonytramman]

it works now too see if it can be chipped ..

[Tonytramman]

All tested on 0 setting and working well 

[Tonytramman]

So it worked, however there is an issue. The output is rated 15 and we know the models are rated 12 and they were getting rather warm so back to good old DC! 

Track is currently being shuffled around so watch this space..

I'm rather taken with a couple of controllers I've seen but not sure how available they are, need to do some research, I think they are Tomix look like proper tram controllers ...

I’m not sure of their numbers, I will find out..

[Tonytramman]

Think this is the final track plan, just need the kato 3 ways to arrive and away we go.

need to do some Marking up on the boards and glue them together in preparation. 
even the Tomix track cleaner behaved today.

I had one of those. Very hard to stop at an exact location because of the difference in scale. Otherwise it was OK.

Tomix do a tcs du something or other which looks good

Had to move the depot to a more central area but pleased with it and it’s all wired. Took a while as I managed to get a feed the wrong way round and short the whole lot out, and a few other minor issues but happy now, just got to rebuild the city ..
