Ok yeah you have seen this concept before on another module but as we move to wiring up ackerville I wanted to get the board in place for the module we are now at scenery stage with.

As you can see the boards are simple but have screw terminals for the feed wires so the wiring on the board to the electrical modules can be neat and tidy.

The hinges are screwed to the underside of the module frame and the board will swing down when I need to work on it and up under the layout when in normal use. There should be minimal climbing under baseboards.

I dont have all the modules yet because I don’t need them. I’ll get them when I do so for now the screw terminals will be shorted so all track feeds get power. I’ll remove them when I get the modules installed.

Here is the board swung down and you can see the locations for the electrical modules. These won’t go on yet, I’ll only install them when I have enough track down to warrant a operating session.

Well tune back in tomorrow hopefully that sculptamold we did has dried enough for some paint. It looks far too blue over there.
