….........................--- Sawmill Track and Wiring -- Pt. 3 ---

=========================================

Getting close to being able to run a loco and a couple cars around the sawmill complex. I can do that now except I can only throw one turnout at a time with the servo tester/adjuster connected only to that turnout.

Next up is getting the control panel wired and installed.

Been also spending way to much time on the rotary snow plow.

About 4 prints into it at this point but think that it is where I want it now. Next up will be designing a tender for it. In 1949 these plows were changed from being coal fired to burning fuel oil.

Earlier in the 40's U.P. had bought some N&W 2-8-8-2's along with their tenders. They were decommissioned in '49 and the coal bins on two of the tenders were outfitted with tanks for the oil. I've been able to find similar tenders on eBay but ordered twice and had my money refunded twice as the sellers couldn't find them in their stock. So I've decided to design and print those also. I was able to pickup some 3 axle trucks that I can use under the tenders. So tender design is next.

A short overview of the U.P. rotary snow plow at this point ( HERE ).

To be continued and a link to this whole build ( HERE ).
