Don't worry, she's not getting scrapped! DMRG 7877 gets a little long-overdue TLC, including a new horn (replacing the pair of blat horns shown), current numberboards (replacing the original 5513 that was the Reading number), and front & rear headlights (note the white, yellow, and blue wires stickin' out of the wiring harness). A little more touch-up will also be applied to the cab roof, but not much more paint would peel off.

The new unload track for the Fox Head Brewery has been laid, on the Waukesha County Gandy Dancers model railroad club layout. It's on top of foam, so I glued it down, aligning it with a 3' steel rule. No track nails needed here, either, since I had several WSOR paperweights to hold it down...

T2 pulls around the wye with their additional tonnage, and will soon couple up to the NW hopper and the rest of their train, holding the mainline.

Rather excited to see WSOR on the Elkhorn Sub, since it terminates about 8 miles from my home; however, this is in Darien, which is much farther away. WSOR's T2 pulls loads out of the elevator at Darien, and heads back to the main.

An eastbound manifest slows to a stop approaching the west switch at Rock, where the conductor will climb down and throw the spring switch. As I suspected, a westbound was on its way, since both eastbounds ended up "in the hole" at Rock.
