Working on the downhill side.
I've been working on the trucks on my cars, reaming the bearing pockets, and cleaning the axles. It's really worth the effort. It makes the locomotives seem like real powerhouses.
I am also changing the P2K couples that came with some of the life-like P2K kits, they just don't hold together like a Kadee, and I've installed a few decoders, one in a powerhouse mallet that was surprisingly easy and a couple in some old Athern GP7's/9's and one SW7.
