3 way point

Hi All

I am progressing with my line nicely and have reached the station/yard area, considering a 3 way point perhaps even a stub one?

Has anyone got any good pics/diagrams/advice

As already said Matt, they look great, you should enter them, the carriages i am building loo so crude in comparison.

Great models, and love the lights, now want to make mine light up, how did you do the power supply and where did you hide it.

That slate tunnel mouth looks brilliant. Very inspiring. i am thinking of going quite a lot higher with my line, how big where the slat slabs before you cut them down. More photos are defiantly needed
