I have the bridge in plave t make fitting correct. Now to finish it with stain and place on the layout. Nothing more on the trees yet. Kinda taking another bit of a break to let my hands heal some. The meds are working but still can feel when they are starting to hurt again. A lot better than before. A shot below of the bridge laters
Sorry i haven't been here much. My wife had been in and out of the hospital for surgery on eyes and maybe cancer so i haven't done much of anything on the layout but run a few engines around the track. After a bit of running the 44 toner it has been working more like it did when i first got it. I hope it continues to run good. I hate sending the engines back and forth in the mail. Later all!

Deb seems to be doing better. She foes up to see her doctor tomorrow. I did a bit of scenery tonight. Just the town area and tracks. Nothing big just something simple. Shots below, Smoke
I swear, I can't get a break!! If its not Deb, Its the truck. I am finding parts for my classic 31 year old truck. I still need one more part and i can start putting it back together. Just in time to take Deb back to Lawton again. I got all the parts to finish my NW-2. When i get a chance to, i will do it and post shots here. laters
I got the NW2 wired up and ran it for a few minutes. Only one issue, the lights are backwords I think i can fix that without re soldering the connections. Now if i can fit all that into the engine. I cut as much wire as i could from both lights. I was right next to the drop resistor with having to heat up the resistor. That and cutting the connections to the dcc chip. The while thing is about 1/4th inch around. I just hope i can get it all crammed into the engine. This should be fun..yeah that...
A couple of Ugly pictures of the engine. So far i have both lights and the front wiring to the axles down. Its not pretty. I have tried 3 ways so far and don't like it so hope this one will work. One if the lights are more for HO instead of N. Got to make it work..yep!!
