Got the other Ballast Car in service. Both cars have their 4 trucks under them. Going to load up with logs for test running the locomotives. After we are done both cars will be put up for sale. Winch lift goes between cars to lift body for dumping like a dump truck. Loaded ballast weight is about 2,500 lb each.

We got our railroad test track ready. This railroad that ran around our house had a main line that ran through 2 tunnels and a 65 foot long trestle. The trestle was deemed unsafe so the line was abandoned 3 years ago after we stopped rides for the public twice a year. Tunnels are now used for wood and lawn stuff storage.

Since l have not posted any photos or videos of projects for awhile, soon l will start. Our shop is full of projects that will be finished and out by September. Over 8 locos here. We are not taking anymore orders on anything at this time. After the last locomotive leaves our shop, we plan to mothball the shop and maybe at a later time just offer prebuilt Plymouth or Boxcab locomotives and rolling stock. We will still offer repairs, parts and custom fabricated parts that will be offered for sale.
