ok thnx

Great layout but why are the tracks a bit wonky and how do you completly submerge the track so that we can only see the live rail?

[beast66606]

@Arrivatrains1 The sidings are wonky, the main lines are dead straight - as per the prototype. The inset track is done with builders filler

You frightened me, I thought it was a giant at .10 until I realised it was a toy train set!

nice I like the track. how do you weather the track without losing electrical connection?

[beast66606]

The wires are soldered to the underside of the rails, and all the wiring is done before any ballasting is carried out.

@beast66606 but surely if the paint was on the tops of the rails then the paint would stop the electricity frm getting to the pickups on the wheels?

That's cool! Looks like the real thing.

That was quite good! It looks kinda like what you'd find on videos of real passing trains!
