Electrical Work

Good progress was made today on car 36. I reassembled the reverser, tested it electrically, and verified that it will indeed reverse. John Faulhaber helped briefly with this. So that's an important step forward. I also checked that all the lights work, and got the buzzer working. Then I removed the bogus wiring that grounded the light circuits through the air pipes. The lights work fine when the original system is used, where the ground connection is made through the frame of the controller. And I did some preparatory work for installing contactors. So that's all pretty encouraging.

There will be more news and current pictures when I get home tomorrow night.
