Heck Of A deal With Issues!

I recently purchased this Sunset Cleveland Union Terminal P1a for a nice price. But it did not run as advertised! :lol:

So a bit of poking around I find one frame post that provides electrical power to the motor broke off and the other post loose enough to cause intermittent running.

With a bit of soldering it’s running smoothly now!! :D

PS The catenary project is waiting on parts. Stay tuned! :mrgreen:

That looks nice Jon. I remember riding behind one of those in the late 50s from the terminal tower to Linndale where it was replaced by a steam engine.
