Bob, Things are really looking good! Once you get that on the layout you will have to put together a MOW crew to keep the weeds down! LOL

Kevin, great scenery and I love how the folks are railfaning! LOL Great little videos, Thanks for sharing!

Gerhardt, that is one impressive bridge @ 40", I would almost make some kind of safety arm that swings out under it while in use. I would hate to see those little wood screws give way and your big boy tumble to the floor!

Well guys I am a little PO'ed and I need some more advice. As most of you know I purchased my first steam engine. With the advice of many folks here I waited till I got a battery replacement before even getting it near the tracks. Well they came in yesterday and I was so excited like a little kid, I was going to run my first steam engine with smoke, bell and whistle!

I put the battery replacement in the tender, set the engine and tender on the track, hooked them both together, powered up the track, added engine to my DCS system and let it sit there for a few minutes. Started it up and man it sounded great, whistle was wonderful, so I started down the track chuffing away. 6 feet later DEAD ON THE TRACK!

So my question to you all is now what do I do?
