Progress on rebuilding the new NGLS electric switcher

Some exciting progress has been made on rebuilding the electric switcher. Dave L. installed new motor, controller, batteries, and a new paint job. Things are coming together nicely, and I know we all look forward to seeing this locomotive operating around the railroad in 2024. Big shout out to Dave for his work on this project.

Like many of our projects around the railroad none of them can be completed without our members, volunteers, and support to help cover the cost of these projects. Please consider making a donation to help cover the cost of this and other projects.

NGLS Electric Switcher

A few years ago, a small two axel electric switcher was donated to the club. In December 2023 a plan was developed, and work has begun on restoring and upgrading the electric switcher so it can be used for light duty service around the railroad. Dave Levy is taking this project on and look forward to updates from him in 2024.

Update: By January 19, 2024 the locomotive was nearly completion with a new motor, batteries, and a paint job. A few more things and this locomotive will be ready for operation.
