Mark, I like the overhead trains. Nice string of reefers.
Johan, again nice weathering and good shots of the layout. With the information you gave me I may have located that boxcar but have to wait till Tuesday to call them to see if their list is up to date. And what are the dimensions of the layout.
So today after spending most of the day outside I decided to work on the layout before dinner. I tried a different engine and it went through the crossover with no problem. Then I put the lift out section in place and wired up one of the plugs so the lift out has power. I had added gar graves connectors to the tracks so when I dropped in the liftout section the tracks would line up better. Then I powered up the track. I got the engine to run through the section but after it got past the lift out it stopped dead. After taking the engine off the track I powered up again and with a tester found I had 17 volts all the way to the last section of tracks I did over the gorge. I placed the engine at that end and it started to run but stopped after a few feet. So now I have to figure what is up there plus I have to figure how I can clean the track under the stairs.
