This Friday AM 9the 12th of March), starting at 0800 and lasting until
11-12………I will be at the StoreFront.

The plans are so far:

Tom will be working to fix the Electrical Issue with the large layout and
then lead a team to screw down the track of the raffle layout….and possibly
wire and test it.

Ken will be leading the team looking at the the ballast and making
recommendations…….he is going to teach me a different way to prepare the
ballast….and I am very excited. We will also be making plans on how much we
have to repair and how we are going to do it.

Gary……the parts needed for you to repair the 2055 and 736 have not
arrived………you are, of course, welcome. However, unless the parts they
arrive today, the repair is a project for another day……I will give you a
head’s up if they arrive today.

I got an email advertisement flyer from Tiny Tim’s yesterday……it looks
like the train show is a “go” for May 22-23. (yippie!)

Lastly, there was a question of whether our ballast mix was 1/3 or 1/2,
cinders to gray.

I decided to do an “open-label” prospective yesterday.

This is the raw material and pictures of my specialized ballast measuring
equipment:

ballast being added in 1/3 and 1/2 proportions:

Ballast mixed:

It was decided that 1/3 (on the left) is our mixture.
