Even though the real Grant's Pass never was completed, it lives on as The Grants Pass Western.

No power?
After hooking up the last bit of wiring (to the turntable in Grants Pass) my Varipulse throtles would not work. Then I tried another throttle and Nothing! Well both throttles can't go bad at the same time, can they? So it must be my wiring. Reviewing my wiring plan I could not find a problem, but that doesn't mean that the wire gremlins can't. I did use different colours and wire type to keep everything straight. Next, I unhooked the last bit of wiring (all on a terminal, thank goodness) still no go. Next I tried a different areas to rule out a short in the Grants Pass area, Nothing! Next to eliminate any shorts or Transformer problem I set up a test track powered by a different throttle, still Nothing! Both throttles can't go bad at the same time, can they? I got out another 1, and to my surprise it works. Opened up the Varipulse, everything looks good, the other throttle had a broken wire. So I guess I dropped the Varipulse 1 too many times. A friend of mine is going to check it out. On the positive side (pardon the pun) my wiring is good to go.
