    Great picture Steve!

    You have everything sorted out neatly. I whish my desk was always as organized as yours.

    Keep up the good work to have your locos running again.

    I see you also have some AMF locomotives. Nice.

    I better not post pictures of my workshop at the moment. These would be scary pictures.

    All the best,

    Dave

    Nice selection. Your spares look quite extensive too.

    I have managed to resurrect several locos myself.

    Motors where I bit of bother for 3, but I have sourced a New 3 Vdc unit which I adapt to replace the old one. As the shaft is smaller the gear has been replaced too. 3  locos have New motors, the Yellow/Black/Red Flyer, Diesel shunter and Steam engine on the diesel chassis
