LNE, that old shop looks like OSHA would have a nightmare trying to document all the safety issues!

Yes it is! Hence I didn't place a company name with any of the posts. The irony of it all, places like this have a few employees (under 10) and no lost time with accidents. They have good old common sense!

Spent the last couple of weeks disassembling my older P2K models,GP 7's/9's and 30's various roads.I replaced cracked gears,installed northwest shore nickle silver wheels,soldered new electrical pick up wires and relubed.Happy to say they all performed well on my carpet layout.
Ran into a mishap while disassembling my RDG 636.Did some shell damage that I could not repair.Checking what I had on the to do shelf I found an undec P2K PhII 7 that I had for another project.Anyway,I completed my new 636 also.Will post some pics later.

Bill, what section and time frame of the W&N are you modeling? Sorry if this is a repeat question, I didn't review all the previous posts.

This week I was actually working on the ATSF Surf Line. A buddy was hosting in a local operating weekend and so I have been doing wiring, fascia, staging yards, etc. for the last several weeks on his layout so not much going on my layout.
