</div>
<div dir="ltr">My thoughts were to discuss things from replacing wheel sets and <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">couplers to basic programming of decoders. What do you do when the <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">trucks fall of a car and you can't find the pin or screw that secured <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">them. All sorts of tricks I have learned in my many years of modeling.<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">Here is an example:<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">I recently was working with and 89' TOFC flat car. It appeared to be <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">warped. I thought it contained a piece of flat steel that needed to be <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">bent slighly to get the end down to the proper level. Wrong. The <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">piece of metal was a cast type of metal and I completely snapped the <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">entire car in half when trying to bend it. . Oh #@%&#@, now what to <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">do. Well, to make a long story short, it is repaired and will be back <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">in service. It will always have to carry a couple of trailers to hid <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">part of the repair, but it should give good service. These kinds of <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">situations you learn from over time.<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">I can help you with any problem you may have encountered and we can <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">figure out a repair or ???? what ever needs to be done. We can <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">discusss tools and parts you should start collectiing, ie, screws, <br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">drills, etc. I can bring all sorts of examples.<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">Anyone interested in such a clinic. Let me know.<br>
