The future of traction for Sandaoling are the DF8B diesels and on 14 January workings to and from the Erjing Mine 2 were being shared by DF8B 0249, seen crossing the desert with empties, and a 'JS' class 2-8-2. Full dieselisation of these workings will have probably taken place at the beginning of February. Quite how long the deep mines will remain open for in the area with the downturn in coal consumption remains to be seen, but for sure there will be few if any visitors to report on it in the future.

Working on an illo... Usually I don't post process shots of that stuff but these colors are strange to me and I wanted to share. Especially since I haven't shared much lately after the HD crash. I kinda like it though.
1/2 done? not sure?
finally. After days of working on this. had to remove the heater core box, the hood, the tranny dipstick, attempting to remove the inner fender and giving up, I tried a sawsall. viola. now I need to let this stub sit and soak as long as I can stand it. Might be till next week.

Progress on the drag and side braces. Haven't been attached permanently yet, but I wanted to try them out (notice the copper pins holding them in place).
I've cut and interfaced about half of my current fabric stash. There's actually more than what you see here. Some of them already have zippers sewn in and some are waiting for interfacing.
Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress.

The tender is almost done, and work is now going smoothly on the loco. I'm really liking the progress so far!
I finished the dolly Armoire.
Rosebud and Sweetie Belle seem to like it.
Next I will build a 4 drawer dresser and maybe a nightstand.
Fun! :))
