Well, more work on the spiral has added another level. And around the spiral levels already completed, additional supports for scenery and infrastructure have also gone in.......
Photo 1 - Additional supports on the lower level.
Photo 2 - Additional supports on the lower level. The end of the spiral loop, which will now straighten out can be seen.
Photo 3 - General view. The importance of getting the track already laid smooth and trouble free can be seen - its going to be a tight squeeze if something derails underground. Remember all the re-rails put in near the points? The purpose of these now become clear.
Photo 4 - Side view of the beginning of the underground yard. Notice a lot more clearance has been left over the yard so things can be manipulated if necessary.
Photo 5 - Part of the profile for the hills can be seen here on the top of the formers over the yard.

I think this is the first time I've realised how big it really is!
