Tuesday night at the Huff and Puff 3, 14, 2017




The uninsulated frog.
Well the storm took its toll on our attendance but it gave us time to test out Wellington.  A test that failed! Dead short. Check all the feeders, all good. Check all the wires to the turnouts, all good. Remove any leftover old feeders, still a short. Put all the points of the turnouts open, still a short.  There must be an uninsulated turnout some where. Aha, a Peco Electrofrog  turnout, where did that come from? That only took 2 hours. Gapped the 2 inside rails to the frog and tested, no short. With a sigh of relief we retired to the lounge to congratulate ourselves.
