Thyanks troy for the new post. <br /> <br />Much progress has been made. <br /> <br />1) we made a nice little piece of track that will connect the track on the viaduct up with the R3 points on the bridge and the Mallet went around it ok, slowly: no hitting on anything. ( arches are removed at this stage) <br /> <br />2) We then bent a 3.6 m (12') piece of track in a correct curve and connected it to the points and laid it around the curved piece that the pylons support and it went right around it ok, even pulling some rolling stock at speed and in both directions with no trouble. <br /> <br />3) However it missed the pump house wall by only a millimetre or so, also we had some spring iin the ramp sections particularly the ones over the railway track and to the left of it. We have now moved all the pylons slightly and changed a geometry a bit and we think we have a winner. <br /> <br />However we have other responsibilities for a few days and it will be a little while before we get back on it again, but we are quite hopeful. <br /> <br /> <br />Thank you very much all for youe interest and please do not hesitate to critscise in any way that is constructive that is what this is all about. <br /> <br />Rgds Ian
