O.K. it is too darn cold to work on the race car today. So I'm going to start on a project I have intended to do for quite some time.
My mission?
1.To convert my Accucraft Ruby in to a Forney style Loco. I love this littel engine. It runs great, I just want a loco styled more to my preference.
2. I want to install a radio controll throttel. My back hurts from bending down. Also my railroad is far from level. The R/C will allow me to opperate the loco much better. Rather than adjust the throttle just so.... It makes it up the hills and storms down them at 150 scale mph.
So here are some photos of the Ruby right now. Side tanks are removed and some black paint on the cab.
Hang on! Here We Go!
