A switch and two crossings arrived to proceed with the track plan development.
The switch was easy and permitted a better use of the east end by the east loop.

The crossings did not work as anticipated. I intended to have a second track left of the old one and use the crossing to get from the curved end of the west loop over the old track to the new parallel track.

The Luna design does not permit that kind of crossing. The crossing fits into the end of the loop and builds a second track right of the old one. Nice try but in the overall track plan a useless location for the second track.

Anyhow, I will be busy with sun bathing, ice cream, pools, restaurants etc. on Gran Canaria the next two weeks and the trolley layout will be on hold.
