Friday is Take a Train to Work day

…or something like that - I almost forgot. And I’m going to take it off too (or lose the vacation hours at year–end.) Drat. Anyone have any plans to bring a train etc. to your place of employment?

My place of employment is closed on Friday in honor of Veteran’s Day. Who ever named this Friday as take your train to work day didn’t do their homework.

A cab ride would be great!

Yeah, I’m out of luck too - and I was going to take my recently-acquired prewar train.

Take the trains to work on Thursday, or any other day you want.

I am planning on it. Seems people never observe the holidays when getting sick. Actually, right around the holidays seems to be one of our busiest times. I also asked one of the orderlies who is into HO, he is planning on bringing an engine. I will bring one, but it will probably be something small like either a pacific or Beep.

Buckeye,

I agree, a cab ride would be a fantastic way to get to work on Friday.

I think about bringing a train to work each year and then decide not to because I am fairly certain that it would be frowned upon. A few people here know I have trains but rarely does the subject come up. There is one person that I talk with about trains every now and then but don’t spend too much time doing it.

Greg, you just reminded me of something heading my way. My wife’s teacher’s party is going to be at our house this year, which means that everyone will want to run the trains. Then they will want to have a field trip for their class to my house to run the trains. Pretty soon all the elementary schools in Columbus will be making field trips to my house to run the trains.

Somehow this is getting out of control. [:O][%-)][swg]

I have all the nurses and scrup techs saving different items for my layout. I figure I will bring a train, but I know that they are expecting a big party at our house once the layout is done so that they can see the results of all this saving.

Dennis

Closed for Veterans Day - also, I’d have a lot of fun getting it through security.

Dennis, If they are saving stuff for the layout my only question is “What kind of structure will be made from the bedpan?”. [(-D]

Doug, I’m surprised you had to ask the question. The answer is obvious; THE DUMP or if he has more time for refinements, THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT.

What do I bring to work ? !! We already have trains there !! [:D][:D]

Great topic Doug !!

Thanks, John

How did you guys know I was modelling Ohio? That is why I have not posted the photos yet, I was trying to suprise y’all. Anyway, we have a lot of extras at the end of a case. Such things as pulse pump motors, varied lengths of sternal wires ( wires used to hold the sternum together after heart surgery), electro cautery lines with wires in them, all kinds of containers, basically a lot of stuff that I need to make such things as industries along the rails. Sorry, no bed pans, so I guess I can model somewhere other than Ohio.[;)]

Dennis

Thanks for the reminder!!! I think I’ll bring in my Dockside Switcher. I was hoping to bring in the new Xmas twice around and set it up for our fair, but alas…the track hasn’t arrved yet :frowning:

John…Take a train home !!!

Buckeye…Charge admission. Make those little kids pay. Then you can buy more train stuff.

Great idea Chuck !! I could take one for a ride & pick you & Buckeye up !! I think they did something like that on "One Flew over The Cookoos nest " !! [(-D][(-D][(-D]

Thanks, John

Great idea, John. I just thought of something…I can’t take a train to work. Cause I don’t work. Where can I take a train to ??

Oh, that’s simple Chuck !! TO DISNEYWORLD !!![:D][:D]
