SWITCHING CAL GAS & FERTIZONA (wadell az)
being bored today i decided to switch out a couple of my industries. i found that i have a couple of issues with my turnouts.the locos stall going over the frogs. a couple of feeder wires will fix that. i was not able to get the uncoupling on video because i was doing everything by my self ( running the train, video & operating the manual turnouts.)
the bnsf unit will be renumbered
enjoy the video & as always, your comments, questions & subs are welcome.
