Yes I'd love to see the tractor he builds.

That must be me there. That little secret Christmas tree no one's noticing right by them while they writhe in needless misery.

Thanks Mitch, that was it. I charged the engine on the tracks at 13 volts for 2 hours and off she went. The better news is that I was able to run the feeder wires to the 2 outside loops and the engines ran flawlessly with no voltage drops or dead-spots in conventional mode. Tomorrow I hope to hook the TMCC to the rails and see how that goes. :D

"Hey, Tramp, how's it going?"

"Okay, how's it going wit chew, Tramp?"

"Yeah, okay, I guess."

"Where's everybody?"

"Who?"

"You know, the bartender, the drinkers, the juke box."

"Oh, right."

Long pause.

"Well?"

"What?"

"The hobos, you know, what gives?"

"Oh." Another pause. "I guess they're rebuilding tractors."

"Oh." Yawns.

"Yeah. No shite."

No tractor rebuilding here! But I've been working on the railroad-all day long. hey, is that a song? I got the TMCC hooked up to the 2 outer loops and its so sweet to see and hear engines chugging and puffing again!!! YA-HOO!!!!!! It ain't much to look at, but the power and commands are functioning flawlessly.

Jon, nice shot. Like the front wheels. What a relief to see those. That photo makes me want to build a layout.

Beer?

Pete, I'm only joking, buddy.

Thanks, Tramp. :D The layout project has been going slow, but well.
I hope to email Bob tomorrow and see if I can send him my front truck off the pennsy M1 in the background for the same treatment. What a difference, huh? I love it!!!!!
