Thanks, Stein, hopefully it won't be too long now 
I still have some work to do before I can have a real ops session though, mainly with the rolling stock. They all have the Märklin style hook and loop coupling, and none of them are adjusted to each other. Which means they are of varying height and doesn't couple very well, and some of them are also a little too low, snagging on some of the spring covers on the turnouts. In addition, some of the cars need a little more weight to run better.
I intend to replace all the couplers with FREMO style wire couplers, but this will take some time. For now, I'll just deal with the most troublesome cars and accept some tinkering along the way.
