Main Line in and running.
 All new Zonemaster Boosters are in, still working on finishing the last few main feeds for the track work to the boosters.
Have been building more point to back filling the rest of the layout starting with the last few points in Goulburn then on to Mittagong, Bethungra and Glenlee.
The backdrops for the bottom Half of the Layout are being done over the next 2 weekends then will be painted the Base sky colour I use which is Turbams North Bay
Now the NMRA convention tha was in Melbourne, is over and have learnt a lot of different options to doing things so I will be building some cardboard mock up. so to see how some of the building will look and if i have to shorten  the length of them to fit on the layout.
My Plan I hope, is to get in and try to finish of Goulburn get every thing working right and start to build its structures and scenery, so other work will slow or stop til I get this work done. 

Have passed the hump! 210 out of 400 Points

Hi All

I have great news. I have now finished over 210 points last weekend, so I am over the hump.

Now I have all the points to finish the mainline which I will complete laying the track work this weekend. This makes me fell great for the time I have spent on the layout so far is paying off. I hope to have the all the mainline running by August.

Then I only have to worry about finishing the other 190 points which I would like to have finished by November 2012 so a lot of work to do better get back to it.

Central Coast Wednesday Night M.R.C. visit 18th may 2011

on the 18th May i had the Central Coast Wednesday Night M.R.C. attend which i am a member of. with myself there, there was 23 people attended. Most have see the layout before and were interested in the new work I have done. Some members got a change to operate a few trains around which also showed to me that the track work runs well, have a few small problems but over all the night went well. I would like to thanks Gerry Hopkins for assisting with rechecking all the points before the meeting.

Laying the Main Line on the bottom half of the layout

I have been working in to the track work to get the main line done over the last few months. This is the area from Goulburn South to Junee and the Southern Staging. I have the track done down to Bethungra. but still have to build another 26 points to finish the main line. Once the mainline is done i will start back filling the sidings as I build the rest of the points.

Having built 180 Points I had to buy a new Fast Tracks Pointform filling jig, due to wearing it done that far that it was no longer usable.
Now that I have had more track deliver I will get into finish the Main Line by mid June I hope.
I hope to add some photos soon.

Finally i have updated the blog

Work done by the 10th June for a operational test.

For the 10th June I had a meeting at my place for the Location NMRA Members, the CCWN group (Centre Coast Wednesday Night Group) So I wanted the Layout Operation for the Meeting. I have to Thank Sam (my Father) Gerry, Ken and Trevor for the Help to get think done for the Night.

The work on the Goulburn south has been going well with the the first yard done. The Mainline south has been extended to the Points 2/3 of the way down the Goulburn South. the Coal storage roads have been install as well but the points to this area but the Slide switches were unable to be done for the Night so we used the front yard only.

The Photo Shows Area for Goulburn Loco has been worked out and the turntable is now in position with a 44 Class showing one of the storage roads. The Round house will only be the back half as I do not have the room for a Full Round house and also so it can be see and Operated from the front also you will see the lower area which is for the Ash pit. the Coaling stage road has to be raised yet and I have to build the 16 bay coaling stage as well.

Sam (My father) has been installing the slide switches in Medway Quarry and Goulburn South thanks Dad.

I had a friend Gerry come over and Help install the Point Motors control boards and decoders that run them We were only able to install the Control for Goulburn North and Medway for the 10th June which work great from the test, Thanks Gerry

Ken and Trevor Help with the wiring, They had the Thankless task of Connecting the dropper from the track work in Medway, Moss vale and Goulburn South to the to the Main and Yard Bus. thanks Guys.

One thing I will now be doing is changing the yard dropper wire colours form Red and Black (same as the Main line droppers) to White and Blue so not to get myself confused with the wiring.

Moss vale has now had all its Points install and the Mainline north in starting to go around to Mittagong.

5725 running Light in Moss Vale going back to Goulburn with a 44 Class following.
