Day 147

It was too wet to spray today, so I went to work on the layout. I unsoldered all of the power tracks. I also cut off the leads to the switches and removed them. Then I removed most of the benchwork. All of the ramps except one need to be repositioned. The two large upper levels need to be raised. I removed one and will replace it after I know how the new track fits. I raised the second an replaced it.

All of that was a full day's work.

I won one of the ebay bids I was after at an OK price. Some asshole is bidding up the other item I want. I've decided to quit bidding and snipe him at the end of the auction.

In the evening I went to look at one of the engines in the cabinet. I tipped the cabinet over and several cars hit the floor. So did my C&O engine. I found all the parts for the cars rather quickly and put them back together. The engine took a lot longer. I had to move furniture and sort through the closet to find everything. Then putting it back together wasn't easy. I'm hot, tired and have a bad headache. I'm going to bed.
