Lionel - thanks, Pat for kickin’ SwSat off for us. Can’t speak for anyone else, but I’m runnin’ out of fuel for SwSat, Reefer Monday, Tail End Tuesday, & Front End Friday. Gonna be all reruns pretty soon🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️Still have a few left for Boxcar Sunday.

Same goes for me! Table's about full and I'm in a spare bedroom so I don't have room for "rail shelves!" Got a couple new acquisitions that I've been getting into shape for next week, though!

Good morning SwSat friends!

Marx 70 ton switcher #588 is pulling 2 PRR gons, a C&O flat car & PRR caboose.  

These are Marx’s 3/16 scale freight cars.  Once warmed up, it will run somewhat slow…🤔

Have a great day!

This is usually indicative of age-related enamel degradation of the winding wire on the armature and field coil. I think The Motor Doctor can rewind the armature and field coils for under $100 and she should run like new.
