The actual railway tracks we're making from PVC. The profile won't be exactly the same proportions as their real life counterparts, but they'll still resemble tracks! You can see the alignment tabs, and the holes they fit into in the bottom section. These will fit into the slots and holes in the railway ties, and a screw through each tie will lock them together. Plus the tab and slot insures that they can only be assembled in Alberta the proper way!
Here's a better image of the cross section of the tracks. Each rail was made from 3 separate pieces, chem-welded into one piece.
The whole railway track system is broken down into 5 sections. and as the left and right side are identical, there won't be any confusion as to what pieces go where.
With the tracks test fit onto the outer edge of the heart, everything is looking SAWEET!
So far so good! The whole thing is working out like planned!
Must be my mad computer skills :)
