Title: Happy Grandparents Model Train Show
Post by: WGL on April 14, 2012, 04:36:01 AM
 Since I can't find an announcement by Joe Satnik this year, I'll mention that the annual train show in Menomonie, Wisconsin will be at the Menomonie Middle School on Saturday, April 14th & Sunday, April 15th.

Joe hasn't replied to my e-mail.  The next time I see his sister in church, I'll ask her.  I did mention to her last week the train show, & she said she thought Joe would attend.

 I had a good time at the train show.  I brought my Intermountain F7A DCC with sound that has not run for about a year.  I had tried to clean it.  I had removed the shell to look for a loose connection.  I asked at the front desk if there might be someone who could help me.  I was directed to Michael Chapman of MAC LOCO WORKS, who determined that the wheels were very dirty.  He cleaned them with Electric-Motiv.  Now my expensive locomotive runs again, & it cost me only $5!
