Schuco Monorail Blog

I have started a Blog for Schuco Monorail collecting. Schuco toy monorails were only made from 1961 to 1968 in Germany and were sold at Disneyland. They are very rare. There will always be a link at the bottom of this blog. Come by and see my favorite toys and see my progress on my layout. Here is the link:

Christmas concert

Last night Jerri and I went to the Sunday school Christmas concert at our new church. As you can see it is a big church. The overhead screen looks like a drive in movie. The kids sang great and we had a wonderful time. We have been trying to attend as many activities as we can. It is really feeling like Christmas this year.

WATCH MY ESCORTS FIRST TEST DRIVE



CLICK ON THE ABOVE LINK FOR MY SONG
I finally got my car fixed. This is me burning in my trans. Not bad for Phelan Escort Service.

What was I thinking?

The trans. is back in but there is an awfull pile of parts I took off to get to it. A little each day and soon it will be back to life again. The faster I fix this car the faster I can get back to the boat. By the time I get back to the boat there will be icebergs on the lake.

Hey! Is anybody out there?

Hey with all this free entertainment let me know you're out there. Back under the car I go. Every night I work on it a little. It's 56 deg. and after a while I can't move anymore. The hardest part is gettinng all the grease off each night so I can go to work in the morning. I go to work so I can rest.

It's finally out.


I spent several days, a little at a time, but I finally removed the transmission. The problem was a little 3 inch seal but I had to take half of the car apart to get to it. The problem is, how do I put it back together? The transmission, exaust, starter, front wheels, brakes, axels, fan shroud, battery, torque converter, throttle linkage and a bunch of other stuff that I can't remember are all on the garage floor.

Phelan Escort Service



Here I am at Phelan Escort Service. This escort is ours. I parked it in the garage and all of the transmission fluid pumped out on to the floor. If it had to go I,m glad it waited until it was home. As you can see I'm wearing my favorite shirt.
