Crews worked on the Davenport yard ladder slide switches this evening. Many of the slide switches had a solid throw in one direction, but not the other.. The turnout points would float underneath the cars as they rolled by. I adjusted all and replaced a few that had broken during previous adjustments. All turnouts make a good solid connection no matter which direction thrown. Testing proved that the crews' efforts were successful.
Installed the three remaining slide switches are Carrie Ave Shops.
I will test more in the morning. If all is well, I believe this wraps up majority of the projects before the pending op session. Oh, I do have to drop some feeders on the N&W Meredosia Branch. That will be quick though.
Now, time for a major cleaning and organization of the room. I will be working on that this weekend.
