hard day moving Track ballast today on my garden railway.. Double headed for the inclines.. EW&S 56058 Class 56 and EW&S 37114 Class 37 City of Worcester..

ok weather not the best time for some service/repair jobs

first job is to get the 125 running better: 125 head light & red tail light working new motor armature fitted into motor and new springs and brushes. running in at medium speed

video

2nd job my first attempt at fitting a live pantograph this i fitted to a old TRIANG HORNBY RPD TRANSCONTINENTAL loco. removed the plastic one and fitted the No maker's marked one, but i think probably Jouef one, power feed to motor removed replaced power feed from brush to the under side of the pantograph, the main feed to track diverted to the overhead cable. The track return left to track and motor pickup
