finaly running good! ( I think ) - Lester Perry - 07-31-2014

Some of you might remember back in 2011, I decided I had to make some major changes in my railroad because of disabilities. That was in November of that year.

Now July / August of 2014 nearly 3 years later I finally got all of the bugs out. 2285_ I think. It took over an hour to fix a track connector that was under the rail on one end this evening. It was hard to reach and only using one hand it was quite a challenge. But I got it. I now have both east and west access to hidden yards that are trouble free. Double track main running trouble free. And my J&M short line runs well from exchange with C&O to the end of the line which I haven't been able to do since 07. If you look at the pic the redbrown building on top of the mountain is the end of J&M. It begins just out of the pic where the mainline goes out and back into the pic.
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

That's great news Les!! I'm glad you were able to make things work out the way you wanted and that it brings your layout to it full potential! Thumbsup

Good news! Now remember the daily application of Anti-Gremlin Spray and a liberal application of Murphy Repellant and you'll be fine. Thumbsup
