The 36 was the last of our four operating cars to be inspected in 2015. (That's the nice thing about cars like the 205 and the 150 -- they don't require all this onerous work every year.) It took all day Tuesday but no problems were found. I was too busy to take any pictures of the inspection, but the weed-spraying truck was here for its annual visit. 
Note the grading that has been done in yards 14 and 15.
Today I finished painting the roof of the 36 early in the morning, but it was too hot and humid to continue with the letterboard as I would have liked. So I cleaned up the interior for revenue service. It badly needed vacuuming and so on.
Here is the main compartment.
Looking out the "solarium" end:
And, of course, the repainted smoker.
Since only one side is lettered, I needed to turn it around, and today was a good opportunity. It also gave me a chance to take some pictures of the 36 at historic locations....
Here we are making a station stop along the Cook County branch.
And approaching Batavia.
I also got to do some consulting work on the Charles City engine. The question arose as to how the DB-102 circuit breaker is supposed to function, and what the purpose of the DB-597 relay might be. Because this is a dual-voltage system, it has several unusual features, but I believe we have it all worked out now. I'd like to get a good scan of the (nicely framed) diagram, but for now this photo works pretty well.
