What's Old is New Again, Or At Least Recycled

The last few days I've spent in the train room pulling stuff apart, cleaning up and organizing in preparation for the "next one."  Its given me time to reflect on lots of lessons learned, as well as how little the chainsaw actually cost me in dollars.  

Iwata Medea top notch

This is a report on my experience with one of MRH's advertisers Iwata Medea. 1st based on their ads and MRH articles I bought 4 Iwata airbrushes...life is good ...best airbrushes on the planet. 

Meanwhile...back at the ranch my compressor stop restarting under load . It's a Whisperjet plus I bought in 1993.

I still had the paperwork so I called ...turns out Iwata Medea is the old Medea...even at the same address & telephone. Kirk Leikendahl helped me out...1 week later my whisperjet was back in business.

The Monday Night Mail Train

I send out the attachment as an e-mail to thank those who come to operating sessions on the Kanunda & Emu Flat Railway. Also to those who could not make the session and to former operators and friends. 

The Monday night mail train is also a record of progress on my layout.

Mantua retro-fit motors

Can anyone brief me on the newer/better motors available for my fleet of Mantua Steam locomotives from the 1980's ?   I have been told they are much more efficient than the old motors, with better operation at low speeds and are of the "can" type.
