The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VI.. Stop In!!!
Test ran my Bachmann GP7's today to be sure there wasn't anything broken in the drives. I had to give their wheels a good cleaning first as they were tarnished from sitting idle so long. I had to use alligator leads to route power directly to the pickup pads on the light boards so I could clean the wheels with an alcohol (91%) soaked paper towel. In that I had to be careful. It isn't fun when there's a spark while you're holding that alcohol soaked paper towel. On the other hand it'll put some excitement into your life! Now they run very well and the decoders (DZ125's) still had their programming intact and still set to address 116.
