Faced with the potential of getting 5 more inches of winter tonight, I just had to come up with a way to extend the wings to REALLY clean the railroad. I built two temporary wing mechanisms and fit them into the body and on to the wing. I think they will work, but these are emergency wing mechanisms until something that will work with an RC radio and receiver.
Temporary arm to hold the wing out
Wing extended and locked into position with a clevis pin
Pin holding the wing in position for the big snow.
Sometimes winter can be a lot of fun--being retired is one of them. Having a railroad out in the yard is another.
