Dismantling the ONR Ramore sub for the move.

With an April 28 move fast approaching we started dismantling the ONR Ramore sub Friday night. Thanks to Paul, Steve, Keith, Ken, John and Colin for their help. We were very pleased to see Steve who had just flown in from Germany in the afternoon and who took the time to come and see us and give a great helping hand. Keith was also in town or the first time in some time took the time to come over as well. We started the night packing the rolling stock and then took down the shelf cartridges and took them downstairs. We then removed the first module, Kirkland Lake. I was quite concerned about this one as it was installed in a very non conventional manner but it did come loose. Afterward we unbolted the two modules along the wall nearest the desk. These worked out well as expected. Prior to the dismantling my good friend Bran visited us this week from Montreal. We ran a 40 car train as the last run with the one Hobbytown RS3. See the photo below. Thanks all for your help. Next week we will move the modules to Mark’s. The Kirkland Lake module sitting on the floor.

  1. Bob & gang,

    Thanks for posting - I'm sorry that I couldn't make it. I should be able to attend this Friday night for the move and will bring my van with the seats removed.

    God bless,
    Rick
