Update on the railroad:-

I'm having ... issues ... with my level crossing, it's developed a mind of its very own after I motorised the gates. They randomly open and close, which has caused a major crash involving a nappy truck and a 500 ton train.

I will post pic when I get it working

The signalman was fired after that!!! :lol:

Progress report:-

The issue with the level crossing is still ongoing, can't seem to pinpoint the problem somehow. :?

The locomotives now have a nice shed to sleep in (Apart from that dirty diesel who sleeps in the siding at the other end of the railroad) and the goods terminal is under construction.
