2020_12_18 Nearing the end (of trackwork)

 2020_12_18 

Gosh we are  near the end of the track work! One right hand curve and we will see the light at the end of the tunnel :D



The track on the helix has reached the top! and as Al tests the track he has laid, I connect the track base to the SG escape road leading to the other "room"




This should be the final base board connection! I had to adjust the height with a saw and multi function vibration tool. But it worked out just fine. Could not screw it down but liquid nails did the job.


Ok extra supports and we maintained a strong connection which maintained the 1.5% gradient. This was of course due to the planning of my mates at Kilmore East Social Group! Thanks again Steve and Ron :D


And it looks like the first train through has a long wait for the


Golden Spike ceremony

Cheers
Rod
