Happy Birthday - :wave:

Let's see: Spent most of the weekend getting the computer working again as I had a major meltdown a week and a half ago. Had to upgrade. No modeling was done as anticipated but I have acquired more equipment in the last 10 days, more weekend projects, I'll need to live to 200 to get them done...

Let's see: I pretty much finished the B&O GP38, have a few details to get that I can add later, didn't start the C&O GP38 yet. Worked some more on the TM FA, found a good roof shot online and realized I put the stack in the wrong place, luckily nothing was glued yet, so had to reposition it...

Another Friday is upon us, what are we going to do in the way of modeling this weekend? As there are many a project to do around here, I threw a quick one in during the week and need to finish it. A B&O GP38, all that's left is decaling, will work on that tonight. I might do another quick '38...

Well let's see: I worked on the TM FA's somemore, taking my time on these as I tend to try and finish things up and get sloppy, hopefully not this time. Ran some operating sessions on the layout and had some engines that required shopping for lube and tuning so I did those. Straightened...

Have a great and safe Holiday. Careful with the fireworks!

Anyone interested a N6a/N9 transfer caboose is available from the PCRR Historical Society made by Wright Trak. Very nice model but a bit pricey. http://www.pcrrhs.org/n6a.html I still think I'll get one or two. Also of note the Wright Trak NYC bay window caboose is being upgraded with...

Well let's see: Same as last weekend, lots of projects on the list, so I will just see Monday/Tuesday what I get done. Have to work Sunday night so my holiday is split. Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!!!- Have great vacation - Tom-

Pete, I wish I could help, just looked at mine, it is similar to a Kato cover but it is thinner, I lost half my handrails somehow and got a set of Atlas to try and replace. I don't know if Caboose Hobbies in Denver ( I think that's them ) might have parts they were a big dealer of them at one...

Not too much this weekend for me, the ole body just needed some rest I guess. Fiddled around with a few engines, I think I'm stretching myself too far on the engine projects, need to work on one at a time, tend to forget where I'm at with each. Trains did run, which was nice in the cool...

Let's see: There is so much that needs done I'm not going to list any specifics. Alot of engine work and maybe build a car or two being it is supposed to be a hot one outside, stay in the cool and model! Of course trains will be run, too!! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!-

I got the couplers changed out on the F units only to find McHenry is coming out with a short version of their scale coupler for better spacing betwen F's so they will be changed again. Changed out the wheelsets...
