That challenge is going nowhere for me! 
In fact, I didn't have time to do any wiring at the club last evening. I'll try my luck next Friday. I really want that 0-6-0 to hit the rails.
Since it was about completing shelved rolling stock/motive power, I'll move to part 2 instead of stalling. I started making a set of 4 Tichy tank cars last year during the previous challenge. They are half way done, one is yet to be built (some were used to mock up the aborted layout). Talking of layout, the basement is now cleaned and I'll soon start to build up the shelves and reroute electric outlets.
3 will be lettered to British-Americal Oil, the other one for CIL (Black Cat decals). Quite useful for the layout, we are lacking canadian tank cars (hey! I still like Shell, Union and Southern Pacific!).
I added tank retaining straps tonight. I'll take a picture tomorrow before moving too fast!
I also have a third part but it won't be included in the challenge since I didn't stop working on it since December. I keep it secret till the end.
