769 days is all it took

 The D&H is back in business.

After 769 days since the layout was started to be disassembled, it is now up and running again!

The fascia is not back on yet nor are the signals. There is JMRI work to be done to update the panel so not back to 100% where it was, but at least I can now run a train around the layout.

After a finding my mojo again and few nights and a busy weekend, I ran a train around the layout.

Here are a few quick pics to mark the occasion.

This is the new transition from Fairhaven, up and over staging to Plattsburgh.


Train arriving in the paper town of Plattsburgh.

Train exiting the North Creek branch (that connects to Fairhaven to enable a loop around the room and not go via Pt Henry and Plattsburgh. Will be mainly used to stage a train for an ops session.

More turnout maintenace and some wiring bugs to fix.

Plus need to add the fascias and update the town control panels. Plus a whole lot of track cleaning.

Stay tuned.

  1. Hi Brendan, well done on getting it back up and running again. Yes, getting that mojo back can be a challenge sometimes.
