Hi Luke,
Gordon, O'Brie, Keith and I did some work on the track last weekend. Still a bit more to do however but I know Gordon can explain this better. Hoping to be up and running again soon.

Hello Steve,

It's hard to believe track still not working since January because situations like - was sorted out in seconds if not minutes by ... pressing the button ;)

Hopefully electrical issue will be sorted out this weekend.

Luke, in our determination to clear up the track issue, we’ve been basically taking it completely apart, section by section. In doing so we’ve uncovered and repaired a lot of areas which could be causing the recent problems. We’re also fixing potential future problem areas, but it’s a slow and time-consuming process. We’re also doing a lot of under-table re-wiring. We hope to get it finished this Saturday, but we won’t know if we’ve got it all until we test everything.

Gordon,

This photo was taken (by me) on Sat. 29th January 2022 but so happened - was unfortunately used for your report ... a few days later.

Titled - Testing cars before the problem surfaced:
