Forneys & Diesel Switcher get MTS

Well today my layout has all of its LGB locomotives converted to MTS, I had the decorders put into the locomotives by a very close friend, and I thank him very much for doing this. The decorder that was put into the Diesel switcher was quite easy. But putting the decorders into the Forneys was a major job. He sent me pictures and they looked like jig saw puzzels. I will have them shortly and am looking forward to running them. Down the road I plan on putting a decorder with sound in my USA Trains SD70MAC. I cannot wait to hear it run. Well its -11 degrees here in Halifax, NS and clear, with a forecast of snow for this evening. Not to worry I can still run my train no matter what the weather ( Indoor Layout )

Ground Hog Day

Well here it was overcast and cloudy and the ground hog didn't see his shadow. So I guess that we are in for another six weeks of winter. This winter has been the worst in ten years here in Nova Scotia, about every second day we have had snow. But because I have an indoor G scale layout , it is no problem, I am able to run my trains daily no matter what the weather is and that is a great advantage over having a G Scale layout out doors. I guess I will go and run some trains, talk with you later.
