    TRAIN UPDATE!!
    I bought a battery for the train last Sunday.  I mounted it to a battery mount inside the tank of the engine.  I bu ilt the tank around the battery  and also built the cab chassis.  I finished the chassis today  I still need to complete the tank skin and the cab roof  and then install the wiring harness.

    ENGINE CHASSIS

    Began building the chassis for the engine base.   The tank is a 3/4" plywood cut to a 10.5" diameter and then cut in 1/2.  I then ripped 4-1x1x12" pieces of wood to connect the 2 pieces of plywood together .   I will pick up the deep cycle battery today and will also finish the rough in of the engine cab  and then will be ready to paint.   enjoy the pics
