My workbench is so messy I find myself staying
away and not working at all. That needs to change.

My first attempt to start making a change.

Finally, I got some time to finish the workbench.

Almost there...

Now this is what they call, "Starting with a clean slate."

I wonder how long I will be able to keep it clean?

DONE!
Ready for another project!

Next project:

Locomotive/Car Maintenance Cradles for the Workbench

I also added a tab which displays what needs to be
fixed for each of these cars.

Here are the cradles on the storage shelf
located at the workbench.

I've just cleared the top two cubbies
to make room for more projects.

Now let's get to work...

I had 6 cars in the cradle. One is finished...

A red gondola is the one I finished. Here is the entry
on the Cars in Consist paperwork.

And this is the Car Maintenance record
sheet I use to go through the checklist.

I store the "New & Improved" cars in two locations:
The 1st is the RIP tracks for WB trains.
The 2nd is the Industrial Park Transfer Track for EB trains.

Here are 5 of the six cars I've finished this weekend.
They are ready to be picked up for revenue production.
