I'm always on the run !Just remember, when there's no track gang around, it's SWMBO who feeds the foreman, so if you get asked would you prefer medium rare or well done, run!

Looking awesome!!!I worked a little this afternoon. I am very happy with the result. I used wood screws to attach everything. I need to add battens under the two "bridges". I'll do that later. The photos explain it better than I can. Hope it's clear...
Quick reminder: I need to be able to quickly disassemble my layout (SWMBO rule)

Thanks !Looking awesome!!!
An answer to that is simply to use a coloured sticky-backed vinyl, but they're a pain to applylooks nice, but the wood you are using is not a really great choice i think. if this wood is the same as we have in switzerland, its a "sucker" so if adding colors it will "blow up". also the edges are not really strong on this type of wood, they can easily break. so if there is still time to change i would go for plywood.
i hope you get what i mean iam not that great in explaining in english
I get it ! I use chipboard. Plywood is too expansive.looks nice, but the wood you are using is not a really great choice i think. if this wood is the same as we have in switzerland, its a "sucker" so if adding colors it will "blow up". also the edges are not really strong on this type of wood, they can easily break. so if there is still time to change i would go for plywood.
I am French. So my English is very bad... but it seems like everyone understands me here.i hope you get what i mean iam not that great in explaining in English
Plywood only seems expensive until you realize your chipboard will crumble to powder as soon as it gets any moisture on it.I get it ! I use chipboard. Plywood is too expansive.
Adding some turnouts and a siding.I drew the new track plan. I used my favorite brand of track: Trix C track (made in Germany). As usual, all your comments, advices and criticisms will be greatly appreciated.
