I'm really not sure what I might do. Finished the LO decaling during the week, thought I was going to have to work tonite and I have two yards to mow tomorrow, so I didn't plan anything special, except running trains. I don't have to work tonite so I will dig something up to do.- - We will...

Well I didn't get too much done this weekend, finished the Athearn 4 bay to 3 bay LO and painted it, started decaling it and am still working on decaling it. I did run trains alot, so I did do something constructive. Hope everyone had a great weekend!!-

The Walthers Trainline engines usually have a sheet inside that shows where to oil, but I never oil gears, I always use grease, Labelle #106, it keeps them quieter, I put light oil on anything that might cause friction, motor bearings, wheel bearings, worm gear bearings, truck gears bearings...

It sounds like it just needs lubed, Walthers engines are generally pretty quiet. Have you been running it alot? Gears need greased and bearings oiled!

Having lived in NY, I heard it interpreted both ways 'in spite of the devil' & ' spitting devil'. I ran many a train by that location and I can tell you it lives up to it's name, when the tides change you can watch it go from calm to a torrential nightmare with swift currents, eddys and waves...

Happy Belated Birthday - :wave:

Didn't get as much done as I had hoped, but I did do something. Worked on the Tichy gon, completed it all but the piping, I'll leave that for another time just didn't feel like bending wire, it is in service though and looks great. I leave the instructions a little bit to be desired but that's...

David, Unless you already have the parts to power them, I wouldn't bother unless you really want to, Trainworld I think still has the P2K FA1 and FA2 A/B sets on sale for $49.99, both powered, much better shell. You''ll spend more on each one if you don't have the parts already. I'm the one who...
