Something New

Postby Jay Criswell » Sun Feb 07, 2021 9:23 pm

So Bob wanted some new posted. How about this?

I'm really starting to get sick of working on gearboxes. Need 150 for the Baldwin Center Cab Project and have about 175 ready. Always make extras. If not used on this project they can be used for projects that have been sitting here way too long.

Impressive! Must be a lot of work going forward into these projects.

Jay, I cannot tell you how happy I was to hear that you would be providing the drives for the centercabs. Obtaining a Houlemard-era CLW model and having a locomotive with one of your drives installed were both on my wish list, and now I get both in one iconic model.

But, yes, I am sure you must get getting tired of assembling gearboxes. I hope your redesign from a couple of years back has paid off though in regards to streamlining the assembly.

Yes, there seems a good solid group involved.

These are some great shots. Making these things work from the ground up has to be very satisfying.

Chris,

Yes, it is, when it works out. When it doesn't, not so much.
