Great day to run trains

[SNOWSHOE]

I finally fixed my 4-6-0.  I kept having problems with the lead truck derailing.  I first tried weights with no luck.  Then I spread the wheels out   a little and it did the trick. ( I alos order a lead truck from Barry.  When I got it in I will use that) Had the trains running all day without an accident.  Eventually I want to weather my trains and have just short box cars and short logging cars with a logging caboose. (Logging RR) Winters projects.  Here are some pictures of my bach running.  Eventually my shots will get more realistic looking as things grow.

Thanks toad. I still have a lot more to go.  Still want to add some plants, I have a whole corner to work on, build some tunnel portals and I still have to add my side track off the switch. Thats going to be my logging operation/sawmill.   Plus some structures like a mountain farm,  cabin and a fire tower.

Cool Beans! I just saw your post over on the bachmann forums and was going to send you a PM here to see if you had any luck fixing the problem and saw this post lol

Toad is right though you have gotten alot done it short time, I dont even have any track down yet im still working on finishing up getting the roadbed down that I started in the fall! I need to stop messing around with the trains inside and get back to work outside now that it has warmed up 

Cant wait to see your setup more finished with the stuff you just said it already looks great!

Thanks, I did get a lot more done than I thought.  Everything went smooth.  Whenever I got to a part I though was going to take time ended being easy.   My main goal was to get the track down and worry about planting latter.  When I saw that  under 4 bucks I could get Dwarf Spruce etc... I jumped on it.  I ended up getting what I needed. I still have a lot of fine details to work on.
