Progress Report 11.06.11

Worked on the layout some today.  Majority of the time was spent cleaning the track.  That's a pretty big project to complete, but its done.  Consisted locomotives and wrote down the train assignments.  I will test run all the loco sets throughout the week to get them warmed up and lubed for the op session.

Constructed the Peoria Journal Star basic structure.  Extended the paved driveway for truck loading.

Worked on one of the newly painted GP7s.  Peconic Shops reported that it was running erratically.  I went to test it to find the decoder seemingly dead.  Fought to get the shell off and tested.  I found that it did have power, but had a connectivity issue with the decoder board.  Taped down the board to ensure a good connection, tested, replaced the shell and tested again.  All good now!
