Re: Train sets!
Switched the scrap hopper and the construction loader because the Scrap hopper was tied down to the shorty flat car for a long time and the overhang was always a pain to deal with, so once I gave it a second look, it made better sense to switch them

Re: Train sets!
taking the ACF covered hopper back to the layout tomorrow, but may not run any trains, just not feeling any motivation for any operating sessions at all this week, and the lack of any landscaping work is going to keep me away as well

Re: Train sets!
paid a visit to the set today, and did some running, moved some grain hoppers around and a few other switching ops as well, but that's about it

Re: Train sets!
If anyone wants to know, the DCC system intended for use on the LCVRR is working but computer issues have taken priority for the time being.

Re: Train sets!
went to yet another solo session at the train set tonight, really getting sick of them, may put my boycott back on again if [Only mods are allowed to see this link] won't stop being so childish and immature. But,. on a morepositive note, the work with DCC system is progressing, we are working to lock down the operation of the wireless thottles, just need a CP rail unit with DCC installed, preferably An SD40-2 if possible, as i have many of those, or a CP rail affiliate.

Re: Train sets!
paid a visit to the train set tonight, couldn't do much running, but managed to fix the coupler issues on my one AP flat, just have to fix the other with some more shims if i can find some, and hopefully get this done before getting my summer boycott started.

Re: Train sets!
update, ACF covered hopper is back from the renumber, and the AP flat in TOFC service does not need a shim under its coupler so there is no need for extra work.

Re: Train sets!
Don't know if 1mtvfan has mentioned this or not, but there was an operating session recently and things were working for the most part

Re: Train sets!
Update, there will be no more Solo operating sessions from me, i am finished entirely with them, and my summer runs are now canceled, so from now till the end of summer, i am sitting out entirely, also, if anyone has any ideas to offer on how i should spend my time, they are welcome to offer them as long as they are not immature and pedantic.
