repair my SW 1500 BN 49

[rustam]

Hey guys! Hi!
I took the time to fix this - shunting switcher!!!
What have I done? Asked his friend (he is a noble electrician!) Solder all the wires inside the case. And set the decoder.
Factory assembled by the manufacturer was a real marriage. Someone from the collectors of this model "distinguished" ;-(
We also installed metal handrails. Also found couplers kadee №5.
And of course - weathering!

OMG Louis that's a freakin rainbow! I'd go for the ex-Milwaukee unit, my mill switchers have a lot of orange on them with dark green where the black is.

Nice weathering job...light but very effective. What method did you use?

Did you replace the original Athearn wheel sets?

Thanks.

Greg@mnrr! I'm sorry to say your message is not immediately ...
Look here for a photo of my materials. Remover, paint and dust.
And by the way, why do you ask about wheel sets? No I have not changed. I have them painted and cleaned the flange.
