overcome even the slightest power interruption

It is a real pain in the arse, isn't it? But it is very surprising wth that many axles picking up power. I haven't really had a need for a stay alive for locos with at least 4 axles. 0-6-0, 0-4-0 definitely needs it.

TCS nano won't fit? Even though it is only 1000uf, it does help with spikes for my OO scale stuff motor only. Once I added lights, I needed more.

Yes it does.
Been busy today, pressure canning the Green Bean harvest from the past three days.

Had to do it twice since my canner only holds 7 pint jars.
BTW, that beige land line phone in the background is 46 years old and still works just fine; although we rarely use it any more. All but about 350 numbers are long distance! Used to have extended area coverage, but we dropped that after my wife got her first cell phone in '88 or so!

Are you lubricating rails, Kusojiji: One of the classics here is "Wahl Hair Clipper Oil." Maybe try that?
 


This could be an interesting Nielson ratings comparison tonight. WNBA's Indiana Fever battling the Portland Fire (who?)...vs. The NBA Western Conference Final game seven: Spurs vs. Thunder.

Both games are on at 6:00 PM and both are on broadcast, not cable or streaming.

That's the one then, however it's spelled.

I've always loved the "L's"I guess.

The spelling is Lisl or Liesl. The pronunciation is Lee-sl. Many would pronounce this as Lee-sul, but there is no 'u' sound between the s and l. The tongue goes from the front of the palette at the S and sides of the tongue are immediately raised to the inside of the teeth for the L. You'd have to hear it.
