I got quite a bit more track laid this week and a lot of turnouts. I've been running a locomotive over each new section of track as I add it and it's been a help. I've had two shorts but they were easy to find since I tested each new section before I moved on to the next one. In both cases they were where I'd failed to cut the copper foil on a turnout so not hard to fix.
Today I finished the day by replacing all the foam I cut out to make room for the Twin Mills so that I'll be able to continue laying track around the mill next weekend (but not until I clean up, the clutter is driving me crazy.) It's really great to see a locomotive moving around the layout. And I got far enough that I had to put in a new connector for the DCC throttle. I got too far from the first one for it to reach!
The bridge and track right in front of it are just tacked in place.
