HEY!
What’s with you trying for my most TOTP’s in a row crown? [swg]
Tell ya what…Ya wanna be like that? FINE! You’re buying me dinner! [:D]
So I’ve been like insanely busy at work (with all the storms…I work at the phone company), and school is kicking my butt, and I’m trying to graduate sometime in THIS millenium, that I’ve had like no time for anything lately! I made up for it today though. I went to the LHS and bought like everything in sight that fit my layout. They like me a lot there now! (Now I just have to find time to build everything and get it on the layout!)
Hello everyone,
I bet the strawberry rhubbarb pie is totolly gone now. Glad I had some a couple of days ago.
Terry … Keep up your spirits. Radiation must be no fun. Prayers continue for your full recovery from the disease.
Tom … the montains are looking great!. Sound like the creeper is getting a lot of work. Is it due for it’s 3,000 mile servicing yet? The mountains might need some climbers with all their gear ascending one of the steep cliffs. Do they have 1/87 muntain climbers available? Maybe they have one with goggles like the avatar Ryan was using until his Hawaii trip.
It was good to see Darth Santa Fe in the diner. The bachmann Shay sounds like quite a locomotive. Maybe we’ll see more of that E6A soon, too.
I did some non-model railroad stuff today. The garagage got its 2007 spring cleaning. So what if I’m a year late with that.
One of our two five-foot black snakes was out today keeping those mice away. The snakes are named Charles and Camilla.
The thread on GN 2-6-6-2’s reminds me. I’ve been tempted to aquire one of the Mantua 2-6-6-2’s and make it look like one of the rare CB&Q mallets. Some of Burlington’s 2-6-6-2’s were used in the Black Hills on the CB&Q’s Deadwood branch. That’s one of those “round tuit” ideas for my layout. Msot of my model railroad time this year has been for ading to layout itself so far this year. I’ve not added much locos and cars.
Happy Model Railroading

Hello gav…
Enjoy the tea.
Hi mate
I will just letting it stew awhile improves the taste 10 fold
Gav
Flash–
The ‘streaky-puddy’ look in the center represents a pure intrusion of granite upthrust. Coloring will improve it. It’s pretty common up here in the California Sierra, having layered and jumbled granite suddenly interrupted by big, solid intrusions of the stuff. The mold around the tunnel needs some work–as I said, this portion isn’t done by a LONG shot, LOL! The gray is a base color, I still have to add darker hues, some ‘rust’ (lots of iron oxide in these here Buttes) and lighter ‘highlighting’ to some of the layers. That’s why I said that this is a MAJOR project.
Tom [:)]
Huh. Learnd somen new bout rocks. ANd while your at it, your advising me on scenery. SO, thanks.

It’s either old and/or was exposeded to some humidity during storage. Like all plasters and portland cements, exposure to humidity will cause the individual grains to hydrate. There’s not enough moisture for them to combine (so you don’t get a hard lump of plaster) but they’ve already undergone their chemical change. At least that’s what I think.
btw, mountains look good.
Regards
Ed
Good Morning, Zoe, Ed, and I see Jeff and Bill T. have been in earlier. I’ll have some of Ed’s famed OJ,
scrambled eggs with some grated cheese melted in, couple of slices of that near bacon,
and a cup of the TH, please. [dinner]
Thanks, Gav!
Yeah, PC, that’s the trade-off - when you work a lot, you get more LHS [2c][2c], but you don’t have the time while working to do anything on the layout; while if you are off work, you’re not earning that LHS money! [swg] Hope you get some time in on the layout stuff over the weekend. [tup]
Paul, how does one retire from retirement, I wonder?[%-)][:-^]
Jeff
Jeff, nice shot today!
Jim, ain’t that the truth!
PC, that’s only the half of it - since we know that truth, we have to decide to use whatever time (minutes, hours, whatever) for the MRR’ing (after required HD list and other ‘higher’ - or Higher - priorities are attended to… [:-^]).To sum it up - we’ll never get all the MRR’ing time we want (nor enough space for all we’d like to do with our layout, etc.), so we might as well get done a little bit at a time, rather than waiting for that mythical weekend that is “totally ours for layout work.”
At least, that’s my [2c] on that…
Shew, I’m tired from all that thinkin’ - Zoe, I need a RBF, please!
Jim in Cape Girardeau
The man speaks the truth!
Hook me up too Zoe. My brain hurts now too, and Jim’s “antidote” looks good!
Morning.
Could you hand me the near empty jar of Penut Butter and a knife? Least until I cease being lazy and actually do something about breakfast.
Today is belated Father’s Day Indian’s Game Day for Dad and I. Can’t wait. Hope he’s healthy enough to go. Tdoad we’re gonna try the paint scheme again on a F unit. Decided to drop he yellow. And I’ve got a baggae car that’s ready to white for the Freedom Train.
Hi,
I checked out an interesting book from the library the other day. Robert Schleicher’s HO model railroading handbook 3rd edition. It was published 1998, but covers EZ track and DCC.
Is DCC hard to install? Expensive? Ive been reading…
Afternoon folks!
What’s for lunch? Oh, how about some Rabbit Gumbo…come and get it! LOL
Good afternoon All…Its sunny and in the low 80’s here…I’ll have a slice of Garry’s Ky Ham with swiss cheese,Tater salad and a Root beer float please…Thank You…Maybe some Rail Road time this afternoon…Sallie and I caught the old movie Bad Day at Black Rock the other nite its got some good SP passenger stuff at beginning and end…Well I’m gonna take my food and slip overe into the back booth and see who comes in…You all have a good one…Jerry
