@trestleking posted:Finally ! The inaugural run of the Valley Falls Junction RR ! A Lionel 18309 & a Williams caboose do the honors. It’s humbling to follow your own work , 1st I had a direct short on track segment #2, just a track drop with crossed wires. My used Gargraves had red & black leads nicely soldered on already, so of course I mixed them up under the table. Secondly I had a dead new Ross 072 curve. Undaunted I ran a power feed to it, engine still goes dead-stop there. Oh wait, I didn’t clean the paint off the rail tops completely, problem solved ! 😀 Now on to switch wiring, etc. Then install some signals, scenery, etc.
Nice video and I agree with Bill, nice layout! I bet you have been waiting for this for awhile.
