You’re right; lots of daylight left…
I bring out the tools to cut the track for the new switch and the crossing.
Oops. Dremel needs charging.
Oh well, at least the switch is ready to go. No, I need to move the switch stand ties to the other side of the switch.
Oh, and I guess I better build a new switch stand. I think I have enough brass parts.
It looks like I’ll have to use part of my test track downstairs for the new siding; I sure thought I had enough without that.
At least I was smart enough to order the track joiners and they have arrived.
Oh yeah. Rodney said I should put some boiled linseed oil on the bottom of the ties. Dang…it’s too late to head over to the hardware store as we’re already about 90 minutes into rush hour and it’s the start of Spring break weekend. I’m not brave enough to face that traffic.
I do have the Tufboard pieces for the track foundation, but the ground is just too wet from all the rain to put that in.
Oh well, there may be enough daylight, but I have a few other issues as well.
