N scale layout update. Test run of the new spline from staging. Still a lot to do.

Hi Dave , glad to see you are doing well. Looks like you have been busy. Great job with the gradient on the curvature. You been making good progress. Glad to see a train running. Thanks for sharing. Have a good day.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

I’m going to be very busy with work for the next few weeks so I’m happy I’ve got this much back up and running.

Thanks Dwight.

[@gregbowen617]

Looks great! Very smooth climb up the new gradient...

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

I’m pretty happy with the outcome. It feels like a big step back pulling out the old section but it will be worth it.

[@mikea0811]

Wow!!! Big train pull and no problems!!! Great job, David!!! I'm glad to see the progress again in the train room!!!

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Thanks Mike.

[@derailroad]

excellent , looks great

[@dkaustin98]

That is a ice big curve there and it fits with the layout. Good job!

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

It is a fair old radius.

[@garryhulshof4383]

Very impressive. You’ve done a lot.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

It’s gone smoother than I hoped.

[@ruatrainman2]

Nice! I'm happy for you, it seemed to run very smooth. Oh don't worry about not adding the detail parts to your loco's, I have 20 year old loco's I haven't added the detail parts pack to yet lol. Dave B.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Thanks Dave,
I’ll need to find my fine tweezers first before doing anything.

Looking good there 👌

Thanks mate.

Nice work David, looks like you nick that problem. Bob

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Thanks Bob.

[@pdrrengineer1404]

Great job with the spline roadbed there David. It certainly looks like it should never present any problems with gradient or curvature. Looking forward to the next installment.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Thanks Art,
Hopefully the upper curve will come out just as well or better.

[@Chris-BognorRegis]

Hi Dave - To be honest you would not be aware that there was a incline from that angle, and wow what a long rake.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Hey Chris,
Thanks, it’s been a while since I’ve seen your name pop up here. I hope you’re doing well.

[@bgm-1961]

Looking good!
Do you have a video showing how you constructed the spline sub roadbed, itself?

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Have a look at this one.
Making the next section of spline sub roadbed.

@@nessriverrailroad1299 Awesome. I'll check it out!

[@ericcoughlan]

The train looked very impressive heading up that grade.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

I think so too 😀

[@HumancityJunction]

The layout is looking really great, I like the use of the spline to get in and out of staging.
Ia this layout built for operations for for continuous running?

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Continuous running with some operations but nothing to complex.
