The ROCK 1.0 - Destruction Continues 07.01.13

This evening, I continued work on dismantling the layout.  I focused my attention on the peninsula.  I finished removing all the track, slide switches, LED lights and wires from the upper peninsula benchwork.  I removed the fascia and LEDs from the lower level.  It's been tough finding the screws that hold the benchwork together.  Many of them are located under scenery.  I've had to scrape off the scenery to find them.  That slowed me down a bit.  Hopefully, tomorrow night, I can locate the remaining screws and remove the upper peninsula.  The lower peninsula should be easier.

I continued to work with a vendor for the signals at the Ottawa RI/BN crossing.  I believe we have agreed on a configuration (see below).  All will be searchlight signals.  I had learned from my post on Trainorders inquiring about the signals, that the crossing was not controlled by a dispatcher, but simply first come, first serve.  The wiring will reflect this.

The left signal will be a NJ International bridge.


The right signal will be a BLMA bridge.


The BN Crossing Signals will be single head searchlight.
