visitation

Enjoyed a visit from the family for thomas' birthday today. This meant that dad and I had a chance to catch up.

Super progress has been made on k1, Gelert now has sorted rods and 87 has been transferred south. Dad is to concentrate on Locos now.

I have now been able to add couplings to carrs 23, 20, 16, 2115, 2060 and the flying bench. The latter having a coupling on just one end to allow it to be tagged on the back of a rake as a bit of a joke! 2100 has had bogies added and a coupling one end, but the obs end requires a specially long coupling. A prototype has been knocked up. The only other carrs that require couplings now are the bugs which are likely to be fitted with Greenwich ones.

The next three days have been set aside for work on the hidden sidings wiring and alignment. Joy!
