Hi Bob. Actually, that is a Scaley Corvette and a Scaley Aston Martin. I thought threading the cord through so many blocks would be a chore too, but it was actually quite easy. I over-drilled the size of the holes slightly, then wrapped a small bit of masking tape on the leading edge of the cord, lined the blocks up on my workbench side by side, threaded them there and then brought the whole thing to the track where the blocks were inserted into holes drilled into the mdf. After inserting the blocks I filled the voids surrounding the blocks with wood glue, then landscaped over it with Woodland Scenics flock. Simple!
