Back on the boat,,,,again!
Got back on the boat again, last night. Headed, with a booster barge, for Wilmington NC.
Managed to cut in a new switch on the shop lead, and laid about 20' of track. This track will go beside the shop where I'll be building the tie shop
Got the beamer running again.. Found a sheared roll pin, and another one about to shear. I'm not too surprised, as hard as I've worked that little engine. lol!
Will try to add a picture to the website of the new tie shop lead.

Just what is a beamer as I do not feel you are talking about a BMW

Philip,
I think I answered this before. My reference to a beamer is about the Bill Conners live steam, vertical boilered, locomotive that I'm sitting behind in the last picture of the home page of the website. Not a BMW.
