I must have been lucky!

Well it is back to more wiring on my Last Great Project layout and whilst I thought that I had already previously wired up all the track I discovered I still needed to add power feeds at each end of two points so that is another 12 wires to deal with!

My Last Great Project

I am using these handy multi wire joiners which I got from DMG Electech, where I can feed up to 24 wires into one unit and then just have two wires powering them. Very handy as it saves cable, saves time and actually makes things a bit neater.

I am also using these screw terminal plug and sockets that I used to know as choc blocks to make the baseboard to control panel (once that is built!) connection. These are again really useful.

I must have been lucky!

Having temporarily connected the various track feed wires up I thought that it might, given my history with wiring, to actually test that it all worked. So I connected up a controller and had this DMU go through all the tracks. Miraculously it powered its way around all the track without a glitch - I must have been lucky!
