Well let's see: This weekend I might actually get something done. Got most of the outside work done, so I should have some time plus it's hot, need to stay inside. I plan on finishing rebuilding the drive of the TM FA1 and then the B unit. Got some kits this week that could be built, there...

Yes, you want to strip a Tyco, the paint is too thick on them and alot of detail is hidden. Use the brake fluid on them, that's what I did. I couldn't believe the detail that was under the paint!!

Pretty much a lost weekend for me: Worked extra Friday and with all the outside chores, all I got done was rebuilding one truck of the TM FA's, NWSL wheels and fine tuning of the drive to that end. Ran trains a little, that's it!!!!!- Hope everyone else had a better weekend!-

That's a beaut there Ray, kudos on your craftsmanship!!- Good choice of a railroad to model.

Let's see: The real railroad I work for is calling and I have to work extra tonight, start the set back and the rain has me behind in my yard mowing, so modeling is on hold for now. If by chance I get some time, I have to work on the Train Miniature FA's I got from Glen H., run fine once I...

Well amongst all the hoopla of the weekend, I did manage to put together the 5 pack of hoppers. Still need P2K wheels as the LHS is out right now. The best thing was at the Flea Market on Sunday. A woman had a box of trains, it was a B-mann train set, EZ track, GP40 [ newer ] , 5 cars, power...

Let's see: I'm not going to make a specific plans, so I will probably get something done when I have the time this weekend. Seemed the last two weekends I didn't get anything done I planned, so I will try the reverse. Trains will be run, very shortly, too!!!- Hope everyone has great and...

It's a tough call for me this weekend. I need to do some modeling, haven't done anything in a while. I just don't know what to start on but I'm sure I find the right project before the nights out. Trains will be run, that's a gimmee!!!- Hope everyone has a great weekend!!-

two threads running - let the adman sort them out. Total washout for me, very little done. Handrails on the GP40 and ran trains a little. Hope everyone had a better weekend!!:wave:

Another washout for me. Very little done, handrails painted on the GP40 and ran trains a little, that's it. Hope everyone else had a better weekend!!!-:wave:

Sounds like you have power routing switches, did you insulate both rails to the frog. When you throw the switch the frog is now opposite the rail coming from the main that is connected to it. Or you have the leads to the yard tracks opposite the main.

Let' s see: Better late than never but last night was a wash out, worked all Thur. night then came home a mowed 4 yards, only nice day this week. So I was too tired to even post. Anyhow, still have the # bds to decal and handrail ends to paint on the PC-GP40, tuned up the drive during the...

Happy Birthday - :wave:

Larry, Great that you could stop in to say hello, you are missed. The best to you with your therapy and keep the faith. Take care.

Russ, Sorry to hear of your loss, my condolences and you and your family are in my prayers.
