Ready for wiring

Some views of the state of play tonight. Ballasting has continued apace, the new headshunt has had its rails painted, some better attempts at gorse bushes have been added, the permanent way gang have been attending to ballast on UB113A and a survey of the electrics doen so far has been completed prior to electrical work starting up soon (I've placed an order for one of these - http://www.ehattons.com/StockDetail.aspx?SID=17201 so I can start wiring the point motors to it).

One of the 'cool' things about this setup, is that my DCC controller (when I buy it) will have route setting capability - ie it can change all the points to set the layout for a certain route in one button press, niot only that but you can set a delay between the points actually changing, allowing for a kind of cascade effect - nice!).
