A few weeks ago I was going through my model train show boxes, swapping Kadee #5s for Sergents.  I pulled out the top drawer in my train box a little too far, and to my suprise it had my wife's (yes she plays too) Chessie System SD-9 in the back slot.  This caused the drawer to tip and dump into a pile the SD-9, a couple of Tangent covered hoppers, and an Athearn RTR gon.  [:'(]  Fortunately all were salvagable.  I just had to find all of the small pieces, and I finally got to learn how to completely strip a Proto 2000 locomotive to the individual component pieces (I dont recommend this method) and re-assemble it.  Two weekends completely used up on unplanned repair projects.  I did take the opportunity to clean and re-lube the SD-9 with Labelle products, so not a total waste.
