Layout in the living room!

This layout was started about 5 years ago as a analogue or DC control, ans has been altered and modified over the years.see the links below;

Note that on the last set of photo's all the switches on the panels have been removed....and all the point work have been made DCC Safe...And all the ballast has been blackened as someone pointed out that MPD's of that era would not have had granite ballast and would not have been banked.....so not willing to rip it all up, I settled for blakened ballast Plus at the end of the day it gives me pleasure in my hobby...and that is the name of the game!
             The latest addition is some clear perspex to protect stock near to the edge of the board!
Any shunting uses Spratt & Whinkle couplings, so not much need for the 'hand of god'
