The IntelliBox command station get broken. There was no signal at the LocoNet. I had to sent it to Uhlenbrock for repair. No train will run for the next time!

Therefore I painted my retaining wall at Harbor District a little bit.

And I worked more with my Mike. Now, all decals are finished, it's a Westport Terminal RR Mikado. But some weathering should be!

Today my Mike got a front coupler. I followed the method from my friend Friedhelm. He gave me even the modified Kadee coupler # 58.
This shortened coupler has two holes, one for the eyelet and one perpendicular to the shaft.
