Update

Over the winter, the fiddle yard has been almost completely re-wired.

The main power supply has now been split into two supplies with great sucess - the track is now separate to the ancilaries.

I have broken into the boiler house, and a boiler and "effect" are being installed.

Some grass has arrived, some gorse is on order.
Some switches have arrived so I can now start on wiring up the main point blades.

Station lights have been removed and N gauge ones installed, but power (14-16v AC or DC) is an issue, so "new" 12v DC bulbs are on order.

I bought some draw sliders from B&Q and may consider using them on the fiddle yard ala Loch Ewe Harbour.

The "old" roco has had it's wheels changed to new ones and tested. Driver & name plates to be fitted.

G. Thommen now has a fireman, the driver needs to be painted and installed.

VoR Guards van that got damged in transit has been repaired and now needs tested.
