Just kidding. Actually the above picture is the temporary wiring at the bottom of the Helix. The picture below is at the top. The Helix loop is split into 4 blocks - Outside helix, Inside helix, Ceiling level, and bottom level. The inner and outer helix track wires were all kept at the same length to minimize voltage drops. The picture above has all 4 blocks tied together. A plywood panel and terminal blocks will be added as time permits, and will hopefully look more like the picture below.
The wires are color codes similar to house wiring, with Green being track ground and Black for track power. Large white will be used for accessory ground, with Red being accessory wire. The white terminal block with the smaller wires is for low current accessories and switch track power. The wiring on the upper level has to be complete prior to finishing the bridge.
