After 4 months all the track and points for the part layout rebuild are laid. The layout is "whole" again. Now it's down to testing and wiring up the new control panel. Hopefully I'll get a video posted shortly showing progress to date.

Quick update on the rebuild
I've decided to paint the pointwork before laying it and a small portion of each platform end will need to be removed to allow the track to "flow" better. Once joined I now have room to slightly lengthen both platforms.

Welcome to the channel where you will find videos documenting the building of my N Gauge layout - Blackwood. The layout was started back in 2008 and has never technically been finished - what layout ever is!
The layout moved to a purpose built garden building in December 2020. This was documented throughout 2020.
In 2021 I built two helixes to allow access to new under baseboard storage areas.
During 2022 the helix lines started to be integrated into the main layout. Work will continued through 2023.
In late 2023 I realised the layout could be a little bigger by utilising around 19 inches of unused space down one side of the layout. 2024 will see work progress on this part layout rebuild.
