Weekend Engineering Works

Still somewhat demotivated (is there such a word?) and the GJLC is only 96 days away. Or should I be I have spent the weekend fettling the track and at last can get my sole working locomotive to run the full length of the track without falling of or stalling too often.

attempts to get EKR No4 working was rather unsuccessful d the motor no longer meshing cleanly and having wasted hours last week in the evenings has been put to one side; rather useless having a second working locomotive if the tracks not working. Interestingly a standard Dapol M7 ran the non point work track rather well although it screamed like a Porker at been run on DCC. As a quick fix if/when the wheel Turning service resumes (I hope that the member responsible, Health is improving) it will become a Hire loco for Line No4 although a long way from home, at least it fits period wise although the livery will be wrong.

Like wise my attempts at transfer decals have been deemed a failure yet more time wasted, so its back top pre-printed Decals and serious head banging eye strain

Bugger never realised how crooked the buffers are
