Essential track maintenance


Yesterday I removed the section of baseboard with the sticky turnout, glad I made my layout in 4 foot sections!


The fault was down to a sliver if wood where the actuation rod passed through the board it was acting like a spring.  



I do like these slow acting motors from DCC concepts


The opportunity arose to add some more ground work in siding and approach road. 





Oh and the stencils from  www.modelrailwayscenery.com.
