Today's arrival is a lot even for me lol, I think I got a lot of everything I got items that I wanted like the Cosmic workstand and the Aru brass kits I am pretty psyched about that. I got some clear Kato display tracks I always see them on some YouTuber's channels. I also received a GreenMax Enginehouse plus a couple of Kato Japanese Tokis and a special TOMIX Koki. I also got several pantographs for the Aru brass kits and trucks. I purchased an Aru model Inspection walkway for an engine house I guess. Finally, I got another Kato EF200 All in all it was a nice package to get, but I'm not sure where to start with it all.
This Blog is all about my adventures in N-Gauge Railroading. There is a second part to this railroad Blog which is a Japanese component as I like to model Japanese railroads.

The HVAC's are here!!!!
And they look good, I have a sample HVAC on a small building next to an N scale figure for size comparison and I must say the HVAC looks gigantic next to him but realistically so. And the ladder looks good as well I think.

3D printed Barriacade Bunnies, YES!!!!!
Barricade bunnies are a thing in Japan and so are barricade frogs too..
Once I finalize the 3D models I'll send them to the online 3D printer to be printed in Hot Pink. I can't wait until they are ready to be printed. I'll post post pics of the Bunnies once I have a minute.

The shell is on the EF200 finally!!!!
I have a Kato EF200 that I installed a Digitrax DN163K0 decoder, The decoder install was a breeze but I couldn't fit the shell onto the chassis because of the decoder. I needed to modify the shell to make room for the chips on the decoder. I dreaded doing the modification because I was scared of messing up the shell. It's been more than 5 months since I installed the decoder but today was the day to do it so I grabbed the trusty Dremel and Xacto knife and started hacking away. Yes, everything fits and the shell is nice and secure, Glorious pics below for your viewing pleasure. Talk about coincidences look at the color of the Dremel tool and the EF200 wow so strange.

They're done!!!!! HVAC units have been completed!!!!
Theae are HVAC units that I created in Tinkercad that I recently sent them off are completed. Not too shabby if I say so myself, I thought I had sent some other HVAC files off to print and it turns out I canceled them by mistake. I kept this job active and Im glad I did., I cant wait to install them on some buildings.
