Today was a big day work-wise with quite a bit accomplished. Some small detail parts were added to the layout. New addition of the GP10 made by Intermountain was programmed and run through its paces. Some custom made tanks/silos were delivered courtesy of a friend of a friend. Four of these will be used as the storage tanks at Holsum Baking, while the other five or six will be used at Allied Chemical. But the biggest accomplishment was the installation and wiring of the smart booster from NCE.
Tomorrow is the big day as well, as all the throttles with all the locomotives will be tested with the smart booster in preparation for operating sessions. Stay tuned, but for now, here’s a few photos from today’s work:

I have been a railfan since the age of 6, and a modeler since the age of fourteen. This is my first fully (well not quite) completed model railroad. I fell in love with trains early in life, ride them when I can, have volunteered on many steam fan trips and have ridden many more steam excursion trips, have belonged to several model rr clubs, and did a stint as a brakeman/conductor on a midwest regional railroad. My layout was published in Model Railroader magazine in 2016. I hope all of you enjoy the ride here on my sites! I now have the second blog/website up for my other hobby: wargaming with Flames Of War. I have been involved in wargaming off and on since my teens......

Interesting new diesel. It will look amazing after you do your weathering on it.
