I had to do a bit of track-doubling, adding stations, and again, I'm not sure whether it goes clockwise or anti-clockwise. Can't remember either whether there's another station in the middle either. Only 4 more to go now... :-) -- Frankie Roberto Experience Designer, Rattle 0114 2706977 http://www.rattlecentral.com
