[Accrs-ho] Fair is in full swing, trains are running

[Kelly Linke]

Hello folks,The Alameda County Fair is upon us and our big focus for the next couple of weeks.We got to do what we enjoy - running trains on our layout. And running they do.
The last two days we had some power pick up issues on the way to (passenger) and from (freight) Summit where some switches did not get power near their respective frogs. It stops single engine trains, multi units push through but each unit in the latch up also looses power for a brief moment.Garon found a quick remedy: Use rubbing alcohol and wipe the track contact surfaces. So far it worked.
If you have any observations or comments, please share.
Thanks for a great start,See you at the fair.Jorg
