I just got an email from John Wallis, president of NRail, on location at Grapevine TX for the 50th Anniversary of N-TRAK.
Cotton Brute, which was restored specifically for this event, has suffered a burned-out decoder. Kenny from Yankee Dabbler installed a second decoder, which operated fine on the test track. However, when the loco was put on the track it, too, failed.
So, the star of the show has been sidelined.
When it returns from Texas I will once again diagnose and repair it and get it back into shape for Altoona and for it's return to Danville in September.
