Did some more ballasting and decided to put some 'scenery tufts' in to get the look that i wanted and it definitely made a huge different to the visual appeal of the track. As well as ballasting i have installed various feeder wires and have begun putting in a bus wire below the baseboard (still need suitcase connectors - unless someone knows an easy way to remove the insulation from the bus wire so i can solder it - feel free to comment!) Otherwise, some great progress this past week - i am hoping to install at least 1 more tortoise machine these coming weeks and perhaps another ground signal or two and of course continue with wiring and some basic scenery!

Yours,
