Slow order on the mainline, switch tagged O.O.S. until repairs can be made.

I blame it on having too much Rio Grande equipment on the layout.

The restriction can now be marked as 'void'. Luckily the point didn't break off, it was bent back into position. We'll have to keep an eye on it though as the metal has probably been weakend significantly at this point due to the movement.

With such a close up view that ballast looks really good. What brand is it?

Nice job on the repair. Heating the point with a soldering iron first might make it a bit more pliable.

I've asked around and, as usual, the employees responsible were identified as "Not me" and "I don't know."

If I could just catch those two guys and terminate 'em....

After they get Track and Time maybe get the Dremel Operator to take out that molded plastic do-hickey on the throwbar.

Nice details of the switch motor, head block and general ballast work. Details do make a difference.
