Saturday Cory Wayne and Ryan worked on 1741 again. The
charging issue involved flashing the auxiliary generator to help it regain a
charge. The voltage regulator was also replaced as well . The locomotive is now
charging on its own. The unit was tested on the hill within yard limits . We
have an occasional ground we are trying to find but otherwise it is
operational. Ryan worked again on rebuilding the rear pilot and walkways .
Safety covers were reinstalled on the main generator. Traction motors were all
inspected and serviced again. More for another week.
