I might be interested in some of those semi trailers.
Good evening.
It turned into my second Monday this week. The last thing tonight was a train incident. I carefully placed a B&O EM1 on my layout, then with a muscle spasm, I ripped a handrail completely off the boiler. As I was re-attaching it with CA, the glue spilled on the smokebox. I wiped off the CA, and called it a day in the train room. I will hopefully complete my repair attempt tomorrow evening.
I didn't really want to run that train tonight anyway...
Good evening. It's almost dark and 79.
I was able to finish re-attaching the handrail to EM1 7600 this evening. I placed it back on the track, fired it up, and rolled out a train. It got about halfway around the layout when the tender completely went off the rails, knocking down a switch stand in the process. A quick investigation showed the wires that go from under the cab into the tender had fouled the drawbar, and not allowing it to move at all. I parked the train again for the night, and I'll look again at it tomorrow evening. Eventually, I may get it to make a complete circuit of my layout. It worked fine the last time I ran it, a couple of months ago.
Whatever you're feeding your Mogwais after midnight isn't helping.
I thought it was the "GREMLINS" . lol
