Hitop happenings….

Yesterday I was at a good friend’s house having replacement headlights put in the two locomotives mentioned in a recent post. Unfortunately, my Athearn Genesis unit didn’t have room for led’s to be installed, so it retains its incandescent bulbs.

I also had my Alco S2 9106 reprogrammed to 9806. Today I started the process of turning it into PC 9806 as shown below. I also added a bit of dirt to the bottom of 5628, and rusted the couplers on both 5628 and the new 9806. Photos below:

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......
