I did some work this past weeknd and I added pick up axle wriper springs for the "ground" pick up. Later this week , will order a pair of roller pick ups for the tender as it never came with them. And will be ordering a Willliams steam sound unit "True blast 2" ,lot cheaper than the better steam sounds unit from Dallee but good enough for me. I painted the tail end skirt of the observation car's fake coupler black as the rest of the couplers of the train is black so why not. I put on "Burlington route" decals, Large logo decal on the tail end back door of the Observation car and smaller logo decal on 8MM by 12 MM sheet aluminum for the decal to be placed on but first had to slighty bend the small sheet of aluminum to fit on curved nose of the front end of the engine. I will be getting more clear coat spray can later this week then do more decaling on the engine and tender. Only four more things to be done to go, 1) Seuthe smoke unit, 2) a pair of engineer/ fireman figures with seats from MTH, 3) up grade gearbox and flywheel/shaft coupling from NWSL and finally 4) paint the drivers centers silver with black tires and silver bearing caps on the tender/ trailing trucks. For now here are the pictures of the work that was done few days ago.
