Nice to see some grades on a GR. Nice solid build you are doing.

Nice looking layout under construction there.
As you have a 3D printer (assume as you have the wagons) have you considered printing some points?
I have a few, albeit indoors because they are PLA, but outside and in a sunny area just inside my shed door I am moving to PETG as my standard filament as it is more UV resistant.

I used these, very cost effective.

yeah i have printed some points, these videos (if you can see them) are the newest iterations of the points as they are a lot broader to accommodate longer wheel bases but the construction of them is a little sloppy when on dirt.
