I am restoring/ updating a Ho scale 4-8-2 Mountain.
My intentions are to repaint, replace the Pittman style motor with a can motor and replace the drive wheels.
This is going to be a long project. I work full time and have small children so getting time to work on the project is limited. For example I bough this locomotive in December 2022.
So far I have the locomotive disassemble, paint removed, primed, and some parts are painted.
