Wednesday evening is our weekly work night at the WRMRC. I couldn’t make it out to the club tonight, and I haven’t been there for a few weeks in a row now, because of other commitments. However, I was able to make more progress on the SW1200RS project this evening.
Predictably, 8152 now has rear handrails. I also bent the wire parts for the front, but I didn’t get around to installing them. I’m one step closer to putting these units on the rails.

Hi Hunter:
The handrails look great.
But what I really like about this post is that you are obviously busy with other commitments but still finding time to make progress on these models.
Adding the rear handrails to one unit is a small bit of progress in the overall scheme of building a locomotive – much less a layout – but it’s progress nonetheless. As the saying goes, “How does one eat an elephant? One bite at a time.” Keep biting and chewing, and you’ll get them done.
It’s a lesson for all those modellers who argue, “I don’t have time to build anything”.
Cheers!
Thanks for the encouragement!
