Trackwork adjustment

Something a little different on the railway this weekend,  some track adjustment / installation.  One of the annoying aspects I discovered while operating the railway ( playing trains ),  is the kickback siding / entrance to the loco shed at Windrush Junction was just short of being capable of stabling the branch passenger train consisting of two short coaches.  Thus blocking a loco entering and exiting the shed.   

Coming up with a solution proved easy,  as I found floating in the spares box a remaining piece of Peco track just long enough to extend the siding to the necessary length.  Problem solved.  The extra length could come in handy for a work train or breakdown crane to be parked.   Not often these days that the railway trackage grows,  if only by 5 inches !
