Good morning folks
Big change in the weather. It is 61 at the moment and the high will be 80. The entire week is supposed to be like this.
Since the remnants of Debbie went further west of us than predicated, we got some wind and almost no rain meaning the yard clean up was done in about an hour. We did our usual errands of trips to the grocery store and PetSmart. I finally got the last two tires I needed for the car. I even did a small amount oof laundry.
I put away some rolling stock that was on the layout after I ran some trains. I installed the new 5-amp booster for the layout. The new booster solved the problems with the SD40’s. However, one of them is still having issues with two switches. The two troublesome GP9’s are still not running, and I am close to being out of ideas with them.
I need to reattach a chain pull light fixture in the basement that came loose. I thought te light bulb was going until I tried to unscrew the bulb and the whole fixture was suddenly in my hand. Apparently, the screws that held the fixture to the box came loose.
I want to test the SD40’s some more. With all the issues with the locomotives I neglected working on the Bridges Area. I would like to remedy that some.
I hope everybody has a good day.
