Thursday, September 13. 2012CTS 4223 Update - September 12, 2012Work continues along on this project, even if I had not been able to catch some quick images on the shop work.  Pressing Work On the Drill Press, that is. Lorne Tweed is involved with a boring job, boring many holes in the new trolley board timbers. Then Lorne sent me two images (seen below) to include here. Keep them coming, Lorne!  More Parts Simon Harrison was applying the finish paint to still more parts that have been prepped or fabricated for the trolley board assembly.  Here It Is Here is the first view of the fairly complex trolley board assembly as each part is tested for fit. A good sized chunk of this will be lifted to the roof in one piece to avoid as much as possible, the same work up on the roof. Yes, this is seemingly a small part of the overall project, but many parts and pieces are needed, each to be fit in a particular place. |

7009 number boards look good. Is there a way to turn a locomotive around at IRM? In case you ever had a mind to connect 7009 and 6847?
