    Thanks Gormo .. the 4 way slip is the first point to go down as this sets the measurements for all the rest ..

    Looking good Ian. :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:
    Little more track laying to be done and soon you'll be running/shunting/playing/operating trains !! Looks like the very front track coming off the three way point will be very close to the edge of the baseboard. I'm sure you have that sorted anyway ! ;)

    Cheers, Gary.

    Cheers all .. it's not too bad Gary the front valance is a couple of cm higher than the track bed so it gives that impression.

    Don't know if it's the camera angle Ian, but that underlay seems to raise the track considerably higher than the floor level of the doorways behind.
