Reply to "Weekend Photo Fun 5-29-20-??"

Lots of great stuff I see as usual. Love all the scenes and such. This weekend will mark some sad tidings for 18064 Lionel New York Central L3a Mohawk. No longer the great runner it once was, it sort of died on me last weekend by not working in command. It would spark to life conventionally, but alas, that really doesn't work much for me now.

So, all packed up, but not for the locomotive graveyard. Nay, no, never, not at all. Like all locomotives of their time, it needs to move along to get retrofitted if you will. Tomorrow I will be heading out to the post office to send it out to get several upgrades to get it into "better than was" working order. I actually have quite a few that I will be working on upgrading over some time, I had already gotten my Niagara fixed up, and this engine as well as its predecessor 18009 Lionel L3a will also get fixed up especially since it has not had any operation time because of a broken coupler for more years than I can even remember.

It will be some time when I see 18064 again as there is a backlog, but I don't mind it one bit. It will be in great hands, and come back a better champ.
