As I've not shown any progress of my club layout, I thought now would be the time to change that.

There is currently myself and one other chap building this, but I still think we are getting along pretty quickly. This is six months worth of work:
































Videos to come later.

Wow, pretty impressive work from a club of 22 let alone 2! Is it a new club?

G'day All, I would love to see these photo's but Photobucket doesn't allow any image for me with Firefox in Australia except a text box with words "Guess who's popular", or similar.
It's our third day of 42ºC (107.60ºF) in the shade with a big bushfire 80km in the Grampians National Park to our southwest here in regional Victoria, Australia.

Yeah, I'm not seeing any pics either.

Links fixed, photos should work now.

Wow, that's quite an undertaking! You have really made a lot of progress in just six months.

Cheers Mike, much appreciated! The plan is to get all the track down then try and sort the wiring. At the moment everything runs from 2 wires to each loop - the shortest of which takes 2 and a half minutes to get round at a reasonable rate, so the power is a little sketchy to say the least!

Hopefully should have the track laying done by the end of the month. Hopefully.

For those wondering what goes where and how the loops are laid out, this video should help - a full circuit of the shorter of the two loops around the layout:

Very impressive layout! That's a huge amount of work you have accomplished with just two of you working on it! I see UHU is the secret ingredient to such progress

Where is your club based?

Cheers,

Kev

Wow!!! That's a long main line run with lots of places for operation! You guys are gonna have fun with this one! Envious.

G'day again, I was able to see the photos at about the same time as Tyson Rayles. I agree with all the positive comments.
