MWaz Get off your duff challenge

[twilight]

I had a chance this morning to finish off lighting circuit again on the H9.

I used the same styrene round tubing to slip the Miniatronics 2 socket harness through for some wire management and glued(CA) it on top of the rectangular tubing I used for 4 socket harness.



I substituted 4 nylon 2/56 screws for the brass ones that come with the kit to secure the base to the tender.



And gave everything a test.






I've been really impressed at how quiet the locomotive is now with the Bachmann trucks and the NWSL can motor. I still wish there was a little more top end speed, though. It's topping out at 47 scale mph. I think 60 would be a bit more where I'd like to be at.

I did notice today that I forgot to paint the new tender base black. Its suppose to be in the 50's over the weekend here so I might give it a shot then.

I'd like to give the H9 test up at the club to see how it preforms, too. Then figure out what to do next.
