And finally, as far as track goes (I think) I decided we need a turntable, so Engines can be run in either direction without being lifted off the board.
This is a Dapol kit, with track glued on, trains can run over it, but I will have to sort out the wiring so we don't get short circuits aftet the trains have turned. It has the added complication of being on the section of baseboard that lifts out, which means there are a few cuts in the track to bridge.
It needs a bit of paint to make it look more realistic and I'm not sure what to do in the middle of the turning area. A railway modeller friend comes to visit next week so we'll have a look at it together.
I need to run trains again now, the track seems to get dirty quickly, causing bad running.
