The repairs are done and a new set of shelves are up. Display pieces are back on display should I get a visit from anyone interested in the hobby.

Time to consider a new project.

A Project sitting on the back burner has been to put a decoder in the Presidents Choice steam locomotive on the lower Shelf.

I have not tried putting a decoder in yet nor found any blogs specific to the series of Locomotives from Presidents Choice.

As I look for answers there I am going to get back into weathering a bunch more of my freight cars. For now I will stick to non-airbrush techniques.

Until next time.

PC loco's are easy

I've lost count of how many I have done, they are fantastically straightforward.

The motor is already isolated,and the headlight leads and pickup wires are soldered directly to the motor leads.

Let me know if you want to see a before and after of one, I have access to one with a TCS WOW installed, and one "out of the box"

SKOTI

Building a layout featuring a "what if" L&PS railway and any other shiny/grimy trains I can get my paws on.

Before and after

I would be interested to see what you did and what decoder you picked.
