Yes you heard it here, the Trailer Park Boys are getting into the hobby and purchasing a whack of G scale stuff for an upcoming show. So the hobby is bound to finally take off!

It’s bound to get wrecked or shot up. Remember what happened to Bubbles’ space rocket.
I can’t wait

Just the sort of ambassadors this hobby really needs - maybe the Budweiser commercial was right. Maybe new spokesmen for the World’s Greatest Hobby promotion?
I guess they are just as entitled to enjoy this wonderful hobby as we are, I say good luck to them.
You are correct. The bell Sounds like a “COW BELL”, the steam let off is a “POP TOP” the chugs are “BURPS” and the whistle is a “WOLF WHISTLE”. Heck the sound system even has Hank Williams playing!!
And there is a GP9 up on blocks in front of the enginehouse.[:)]
Oh, oh! X-rated model railroading. What the ***** is next? [:D]

Anyone here able to spell SNOBS?
That is RED NECK with CASH, Correct?
I’m not familiar with that reporting marks - what rail line is that? [:-^][:-^][:-^]

OK I just made this one up but you asked for it LOL
How do you tell if a redneck is rich?
He has a Ferrari up on blocks instead of a Camaro.
OK I know it’s lame LOL.

Quite surprised that members of a model railroad forum could stoop so low as to hang it on a particular section of the public, might be a good idea to check your own back yard before being rude.
As Foxworthy says;
Never go out by yourself wearing your “I’m with Stupid” T shirt.
Yay!
Like @#$%^&* great, eh! Get some @#$%^&* recognition for the the world’s &^%$# best hobby eh! I’ll be &^^%$ glued to my %^$#&* television set when that ^&%$#@* episode is &^%$# on. Where’s the ^%$$&* remote and my ^&%&($ Molson, eh?
SHHHH !
Don’t discuss this too much or Micro-trains will be putting out another goofy theme car set.
the ‘cannibus seed boxcar’ or the ‘rum tankers’.
I take a little flak from my co workers 'cause some mobster on the “Sopranos” is into trains.
I knew we eventually couldn’t keep this great hobby a secret from the real world. - Now if the world leaders could only sit down and have a layout building contest instead of blowing each other up.
Maybe next lifetime

I am OFFENDED, Mine is on Jack Stands, Blocks are to hard to level LOL
I did, (1) Ferrari in garage on Jack Stands, (1) MB 300SDL under the car port, (1) 300D Under the fig Tree, (1) 1980 Corvette on Jack satnds in storage Garage, (1) 1978 Rolls Royce on Jack Stands in working shop. Guess I am a Redneck with cash! And yes I do listen to C&W and can count Jeff Foxworthy, Kyle Petty, Clive Cussler among others as freinds and customers.
Oh well, back to trains.
Gee I joined this forum to listen and learn about model railroads, had I known there were folks with enough shortfall in mentality to be nasty to people that dont quite measure up to their standards I would not have wasted my time, nothing to learn here unless one needs lessons in how to be a snob so I guess I will make this my last post, strange though I realy thought people that were into model trains would have been kind and non judgemental, guess I was wrong.
Don’t watch much ‘Blue Collar TV’, do you?
Shoot, and I was going to enter the photo of the de-trucked and rusting SW-7 in my front yard in the ‘Redneck Yard Of The Week’ contest.

A person who is self-confident and self-assured can laugh at himself and is totally immune to insult.
A person who is so worried about giving offense that they become vocally unhappy with anyone who they perceive as giving offense should go out and find some backbone.
Am I a redneck? Take a look at me after I’ve been out in the sun and draw your own conclusion. It’ll probably be wrong, but that’s your problem, not mine.
As far as blocks versus jack stands, who cares if the General Lee’s frame has a teeny tetch of twist? Bo and Luke probably wouldn’t even notice.
