The year in review. First our largest project, reworking the Elsewhere yard was completed. I think everyone is happy with the new double ended yards we now have. The programming track was moved to the office at the same time. Together this has reduced the congestion in the main aisle.
In other projects we also created a team track in Springbank and removed a hill under 2 turnouts in Miller, which greatly improved switching there.
To help reduce erratic DCC behavior a whole wack of under size feeders were replaced, but there are still more to do. RF filters were also added at the end of every bus to reduce voltage spikes.
Installing over center springs in many turnouts has improved there reliably and where there was no other option, some turnouts were replaced.
Our rolling stock has seen continuous improvements through the work of 1 or 2 of our members. This mostly unnoticed work has improved there reliably and our overall enjoyment during running sessions.
Battery power has been shown to work by 1 of or members, and cell phone operations was introduced to us by another.
We even produced a video of the layout, it can be seen on you tube by searching for the Woodstock Model Railroad.
All in all a great year, thanks to everyone and have a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
