Thursday June 4, 2009 Lethbridge, Alberta

9:30 PM

I am now back from a trip to Calgary to pick up 4 of my 5 locomotives that have had Tsunami AT1000 DCC decoders installed. The 5th remained behind in Calgary as the decoder chip "fried" when it was tested. I have run the 0-8-0 steam locomotive on a piece of test track - the sound is incredible. Steam locomotives are much noisier than diesel. But I now need to put all of my locomotives on hold while I fix up my layout.

I have a lot of work in front of me: wiring the control panel for the Coaldale Yard switches (with some minor changes to the track), adding the scenery panels to the wooden barriers, and testing the new locomotives.
