Good work Reg!  Now you can have little running breaks in between your work sessions.

Great to hear!  Getting that first train running is always a major milestone, even if you still have a lot of layout work ahead.

Great news, Reggie. Isn't it quite the sense of accomplishment to see something actually run?

glad to hear! Before the advent of the forums, I didn't really have anyone to turn to for advice.

Posted by thatboy37 on Tuesday, August 8, 2006 10:02 PM
i got my first train running tonight as i finished running the buss wire and connecting all points to the wire, and i'm running it through tmcc i feel good now that i have at least one running. i am officially into business now. thanks for the help guys and for being there for me until i got it running. i owe it all to you guys, my nephew for helping, and myself for staying dedicated and not giving inevn though i wanted to. the first train to run on the layout is a NS SD80Mac Engine# 7201 with 5 2 Bay Die Cast Hoppers headed for aroud the circle and back.
