Next part of re-doing the pickups was turning up some 00-90 washers, 4 to be exact.
Then solder some decoder wire to the washers. I made two with black wire and 2 with red wire. Here is an example of one of the black leads I soldered together.
The I added them to the Keisel trucks.
Bottom view:
Here are the trucks installed on the base of the tender.
I'm toying with an idea of using a NMRA 8 pin plug and socket for installing the decoder. Will see about that. I've been wanting to try that for a while.
