Progress Report 09.13.11 ~ Ready to ROCK!

Stayed up late last night working at Carrie Ave Shops on GP40 #367.  It had been performing erratically.  I found the decoder was not making good contact with the frame.  Added some solder between the board contacts and the frame.  Tested and all is well now.  The locomotive is scheduled for its 180 day maintenance and will return to service Saturday.

Intermountain FP7 #409 went online ready for service on the Peoria Rocket.

Finished final preparations for the op session on Saturday.  All the Rock Island locomotives look great lined up outside Carrie Ave Shops.  As the boys say "It's time to ROCK!"
