Another day of train repair, fixing couplers on some On3 cars, then cutting open a closed vestibule On3 coach into open vestibule. Resoldered a customer drone battery and an On3 tender wire. Installed new 3d printed G Scale truck parts (thank you Marcus Robbins) and painted them but not the right blue, oh well, they are blue. He can find the correct Chessie color and then started a Lionel repair before I over heated🥵

Another battery powered Blunami G Scale conversion completed today😊🚂❤️ This allows you to run your trains from your phone with no track power needed. Great for outdoor railroads!!!
