Just "sweating the details" here in my engine service terminal.... Decided once the GGD Ogle coal tower was done that I'd alter the tracks beneath it, making the track under the tower the new "Arrival" track...
So today, I cut through the table top and fabricated a new ash pit for that track, as it seemed about as much work as trying to move the existing ash pit from the adjacent track... Put concrete sidewalk around this one, using cork roadbed.... Got it done and the major painting and weathering of all the concrete work is done, track is powered, and anchored and now goes all the way to the turntable... (it used to be coal and sand service spur)...
I have pretty well decided on rotating the ash pit conveyor 90 degrees and converting it to a "sand delivery conveyor"....
Also finished the 2nd BAR 40 foot boxcar and got them put back together after light fading and weathering.
Hope everyone here has a Safe, Happy & Healthy New Year !!!!
