A few members of the Brunswick RR Museum Chat & I decided the other day to come up with an online railroad. The LOLX RY, or Laughing out Loud railway, Is oficially online as of today. Here we have posted some custom ‘painted’ gif images of locomotives & Cars, and will soon have a route map & timetables ‘connecting’ our model railroad layouts. Anybody is welcome to join us, and to check out what we’ve done, we now have a website for it: http://keepsmesane.com/trainheartedguy/lolx
Laughing Out Loud A Lot (LOLAL)
Perhaps you can post a few here for us???
[:D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][2c][sigh]
I posted some also. I did an LO hopper and a T-6 switcher that my brother made because none is availible except for his.
well…maybe if we change the server hosting it. Right now its on tripod, that brings up the tripod logo instead of the image. Most of the images are also copy written & used with permission by Michael Eby (With some editing by permission). but feel free to check it out. Here is a link to our loco gallery:

wow, the entire 6 loco fleet. Even the LRC?
The main page doesn’t come up for me, but the locos page does.
So if we want to submit a paint scheme we have to change the logos to LOL???
Yeah. it would be nice. I changed the site to another spot (The old one’s still up, this works better) http://keepsmesane.com/trainheartedguy/lolx/.
and for kenno:
This is the LRC with my scheme & logo on it. Royalties to Michael Eby.
So, a a a a a , how many cars can that baby haul. No more passenger cars for it, are there? (I wonder if the Samoan Express would need dome cars?)
Chicago - PAGO-PAGO???
Where’s the flange wheeled submarine? Could it be loaned to Ed at PTRA during monsoon season?
For the story behind the Timu Westerns Montreal-PagoPago “AS Sub” Please contact forum user Ra’akone (or raakone) for a link to the 7 chapter story.
LRC commuter coaches are in the paint shop. I don’t know how many at once. But I’d say about ten maximum for the passenger trains, & maybe up to 100 freights on average.
I like the LRC locomotive…I miss those!

So, Ra’akone, where is this seven chapter story bnsfkline was talking about?
Link Please?
BOAAAAAAARD!!! Now Loading on Pier 4 for Honolulu, Johnston Island and Pago Pago and all points inbetween and byond!! BOAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!!
(Hear tell that some of those grades along the Pacific bottom get a bit steep. Wonder if that LRC can “make the grade?” Wonder how they service the hydro brake?)
really funny guys
And why not? The thin got wrecked, bu I once had a switch engine, steam 0-6-0, with oversized engineer wearing a U S Cavelry uniform being chased by an ATSF Warbonnet complete with feather sticking out of the exhaust and arrow out of the Firemans windshield. Native American friend of mine thought that was absolutely the funniest thing.
When LOLX gets it’s line to Honolulu operating,let me know. I want to be on the first train.[8D]Book me in a roomette!!![:D][:p]Sleeping in a room on a LRC powered train,this will be awsome.[;)]
