    Well Riley, you are definitely a nut! It is a great achievement to have if you are a parent. For my son’s first birthday party I had 300 helium balloons and a petting zoo complete with pony cart rides around the neighborhood. We even had some horses to add to the confusion. He didn’t really care about any of that. He was more interested in the shiny wrapping paper on his presents. Go figure!

    I like some of the comments about it becoming a "garden Train" when brought back to the mountain. There's plenty of room under the hood for a couple of Eco-flow units to drop in when you want to use it. Change out the motors to 120 VAC controlled by a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) w/ dashboard controls in the engine. All that makes it so you don't need to run power through the tracks.

    Good job! Though, note for next year, the train was meant to be and was used indoors so most of the electrical problems came from the overnight freeze while left exposed. Recommend covering train and tracks with tarps, at least, and using a air heater near the engine and control box when temps drop below freezing. Also don't run it during precipitation.

    well now you know what you have to do this winter Riley,
    spend the whole winter in the workshop building more rails so that you can drive laps around your workshop,
    replace all the lights for LEDs because they require less power, so more power for the motor,
    plus Make / lubricate the 2nd engine,
    make the yellow train wagon.
    well Courtney doesn't have a child on you this winter, you can keep yourself busy now in the workshop 🤣🤣

    Love the train! We remember seeing it shopping at NorthTown. I’m glad it found its way to you guys when it retired!

    When I first moved to Spokane in 1997, I remember seeing it at North Town mall. Great seeing you guys bring it back to life!!!

    The train is awesome! Great find Riley. Oliver will love it next year, hopefully he will be as excited as you two are. I certain you will have the motor purring like a kitten by next Christmas.

    To fix, the ice on the tracks, buy pool sand , and pepper the tracks. I'm a train engineer, who drove 380 foot long equipment on the tracks. In KY, ice tracks on hills was a big problem, one man had to put rocks in the tracks to be crushed so we didn't spin out. Use, sand, sprinkle it on the tracks. But not to much..

      Wouldn't the sand interfere with the contact of the energized track?

      Sprinkle, the sand, the wheels will crush it into a dust. It also will crush any ice or snow. Sand wouldn't stick to metal wheels,

    Thought - Get the electric power off the tracks. Put the power converter in the engine. Also make a bracket in the engine for an EcoFlow unit. Now you don't have to worry about clean track and wheels. You can take the EcoFlow out for charging and safe keeping.

    Can't wait until you bring the Train back home and build Oliver a nice garden train. I know that you were eyeballing those tracks and said to yourself, "I can make plenty more of these myself!" 😂
