A little work on the layout today..

Not sure why Tracks 3,4,5 are not illuminated.
The wires are all connected, but the lights are coming on.
UGH! More troubleshooting...

Same problem with the red lights.
Hopefully once I find the problem, both colors will be working.
Let's hope!

Train Day!
Just me, Rob and Jordan are off tonight.
6:30-7:30pm 1 hr.


I started with the bridge on the right.
I took off the left "leg" and cemented it to the left unit.

You can see here how they look together.

Then I took this bridge and cut it in half.

Right down the middle.

I put each of those halves at either end of the middle unit.

Here are the tools.
Always tools for every project.

I placed the bridges beyond the Metra sign.
In this picture the sign to the left is unlit.

In this picture the sign to the left is lit.
