Did a couple of things last night. I made it over to Harbor Freight yesterday to pick up some wheel weights. They were out of stock on the 1/2 oz but I took two packs of the 1/4's. I added 5 oz to a ATSF box car that gave me some issues last Switcher Saturday. The car tracks much better now and doesn't derail when pushed.

I also started painting the pipes for the track cleaning car. Two coats down, one or two more to go. Hopefully I can get a first coat of blue on the car when I get home from work.

A shout out to @gunrunnerjohn- I installed one of his isolated rail relays for my crossing signals the other day. What a huge improvement over the chattering ice-cube relay I had originally. clapping
