Out with the old............

…and in with the new. I have fast grown tired of my 8x12 narrow guage railroad. I am rippin it out completely and starting over. I FINALLY got my mother to give up a larger area of the yard to accomidate my new narrow guage “empire”. I will be increasing it to 11’x16’. The current theme of the land scape was reminicent to the Rio Grande Western in the rockies. But I am goin to re do the landscaping as well to look more like west Texas. I will call my new empire the Sagebrush & Rattler Railroad. I am also repainting all my RGW Bachmanns. This should be fun.

Hey there,

Right on. It’s always great to be able to do some rebuilding. If you can get us some pics of your progress. Everyone enjoys seeing those. All the best. Later eh…Brian.

Eric, obviously your not married, or if you are you are pretty foolish. You never say you have got sick of anything or it will be taken down and used in evidence against you, if your wife finds out.

Ian:
Put your bifocals back on, or get a new prescription. He said “mother”.

Eric:
Ian is right, Mothers pass this kind of stuff on to their daughters-in-law.

We want tons of photos, both DEstruction and CONstruction.

I know you will have lots of fun because your going to be outside playing in the dirt!

Don’t just talk about it boy, let’s see some rip and tear pics.

I would be more than happy to post photos, but I usually blow all of my money on my trains and guns, being so, I dont have a digital camera. And I dont have a scanner.

No excuse! not at this price…[8)]
We await your pics…[;)]

We can always sell a weapon to a farmer who likes coyote and mules…shooting [:-^]

Besides I am still looking for a Colt 1911A with Gov’t markings, try to find that! Camera very easy!!! [:D]

Wal Mart sells digital cameras in the LMM lines for 14.99

good for you good for you good for you! are you plannin on makin a water feature?

Eric;

Just have mom upgrade your cell phone, (camera with bluetooth) and get a blue tooth stick for $30 and you’r in business.

I got a Kodak CX 7430 with docking station and printer for under $200. It’s a great camera, easy to use and takes excellent photos! Surely you have a birthday or something during the year?

In any case, starting over is a good thing. It allows us to build better and avoid old mistakes. In my case it allows me to make completely new mistakes, one’s I would never have thought of before.

Do keep us posted, photos or not!

Eric mate;

From an old man to a young man; in model garden railways we never get sick of anything, “Modifying the layout so that it will operate more efficiently and be a better spectical” would be better put.

Regards Ian

Go out and get one of those cheap digital cameras and show us!!!

I don’t own a gun nor do i know anyone who does, i like it like that and so do most Australians!

Rgds Ian

FYI, you don’t even need a digital camera. Take photos with a film camera and get them put on a CD. It’s only $3 or so extra.

Yes Rene i do just that, i have a digital camera but if i want to do anything serious i use my Canon EOS SLR and have the films processed. It is more expensive than having a digital SLR but a new one would cost me more than i want to pay at this time.

Rgds Ian

You can even shoot the film and just have it put on CD without having any prints made. WalMart does a process and CD only without prints for $4.58.

It is a lot more than that here in Oz, but that is the way i go.

Rgds Ian

Ian Most places around here charge anywhere from about $7.00 to $15.00 or more for the same service that WalMart does for $4.58…and the scans from WalMart are much higher resolution.
