So here's a little update on my operations this month. I'm now rostering 17 locomotives. I've gotten the LED lighting completed in the display case which I'm really happy with. I have an additional 3 locomotives on the way, which will bring me up to a nice even 20. I bought a Rock Island 0-6-0, an R.I. C430, and an ICG C430. I've also just bought my first TycoKit, which is Arlee Station. I feel it will work good with the Amtrak. I'm pretty happy with my collection, so I may quit buying for a while. Projects wise I've been working on a few locomotives. I oiled the R.I. Shark and got it to run much better. I took the light out of a Bachmann F7 and put it in the Amtrak F7, so my passenger train is completely lighted. I've tried everything on the E7A, but it still won't run forward. I believe the pinion gear is shot. Other than that I'm starting to feel pretty happy. I've managed to get all the Tyco locomotives that I've been wanting, so I'm pretty happy for now.

I agree RP. A nice display. I'm sure another spare PT will drop right in for your E7.
