Wiring Underway

With trackwork complete, I'm in the process of wiring. I built a new "control panel" using some good-looking wood from an old computer desk. Rather than cantilevering out like a miniature desk, as I've done before, I made this one to fit flush against the fascia, with the power pack sitting vertically. It takes less room and doesn't interfere with my reach to the back of the layout.

After wiring's complete (probably in the next couple of days) I'll clean the track and get my locomotives ready for test runs.
