Can I post a pic of the top of my head where I have pulled out the rest of my hair?? Wallbang

Ok, here is the track laying disaster part 1. The middle track and the interlocking in the 3rd photo I did after the rest was done using less caulk. So much so, some of the track didn't stick. Enough for ballasting (I hope). I apparently either got bits of cork roadbed and/or caulk around the throw rod of the lower turnout in the 1st pic, the points didn't throw properly. I tried cleaning it out, but wound up destroying the spring. The points move ok now, but no snap action.

Not a happy camper. :oops:
