The M62 is a fantastic model in my pinion. Roco did a good job.

It has been a while since any progress has been posted here. As there hasn't been any, nothing has been missed. My recent trip to Europe has prompted me to make some changes to the layout of my station approaches so that they are more prototypical.

To avoid having to see the metal tabs the Tillig switches come with I have started to solder the feeder wires directly to the bottom of the rails. Takes a bit more time to drill holes, but worth it in my opinion.

Finally got around to rebuilding the approach and started to ballast the tracks. The basement has been renovated; new carpet,paint and moldings. I also installed IKEA cabinets under the layout. The lower level will now only be a few inches deep so that I will actually get this this done during my lifetime. This will also allow me to have space behind it to reach the upper level wiring via the cabinet.

Don't like to be picky, but the glue and gravel tanks look a bit out of scale.
