Pennfann, i have an F-150, and the new F-150 SUPER CHIEF are so TIGHT!
Hey guys!
The newest Show display veteran has returned! I had an absolutely great show in Madison, I picked up a bunch of new cars and I had a great time running the layout. The module went over pretty well too. And, best news of all, we were voted Best of Show for the club layout!!! That’s pretty good considering that this is the first show we have ever displayed at, but it sets a pretty big precedent for us in the future!
I am really, really happy though. I ran a train around for at least 4 hours throughout the course of the weekend, and at one point I had a WSOR SD40-2 and about 16 cars flying around the layout at top speed for a lap or so. It was kind of fun really, and it was even more fun when I got the thing slowed down to a more reasonable level without having the whole train come flying off…
Alec, pretty sweet WC units. There was another member at the show who had a WC SD45 running around with lights and sound on the layout, and man was that a sweet sounding locomotive. I’m not sure what make it was, but it might have been a P2K like yours.
Not a whole lot new from me other than that though, as pretty much all I did all weekend was the show. I had a lot of fun with it, and I sure can’t wait till the next show now(which could be anywhere from 2 months to a year away)!

Thanks Noah! Max, come on man, answer my question. You guys can come on the 25th right? Well, they said my pics were under exposed, and one wasnt the right size. I tried them again, and 1 got through…

Hey Gents-
Well, I’ve been posting on RP.net for a little over a month and today I got my first photo of the day! If you guys ever get a chance to shot a steelmill, I highly recommend it, they’re amazing to look at.

Tmcc man. I don’t mean to be rude or anything but, I don’t know what your talking about, should I take this as a compliment? More info please.
Alec. I can’t come down. I just don’t have the time now. It’s really sad because I wanted to come but oh well. Anyway, nice SD45s. I am really impressed with what Proto 2000 is coming out with.

Like the WC units Alec I have a Atlas master series GP_40 and a brend new athern ready to roll Gp38…
Anywone like the sig???
Well, now that I had read your statement a few times, I think it was directed to me in a way in which I should feel the need for defense, but I will leave it alone. I guess I will email Chris when I want to talk cars, or someone else if they want to.
Well, after getting that off my chest, I am leaving in a few for the cycling team meeting, and will not be back until 8 or so.
By the way, NSSR, I do like your new signature pic. That is pretty cool.
Very nice photos. I do like them a lot, especially the one from the first link.
TMCC man, Pardon my getting into this, but where exactly did you see a statement from James that you saw as offensive. I never saw a thing when I looked back that seems in the least offensive. Please quote it if you don’t mind, I’m curious.
John, Nice Photo of the Day on Railpic’s, I can see why it one. It’s one pretty sweet looking shot.
Not much new from tonight, other than that I don’t have much homework and I’m kinda bored. I guess I’ll go do some internet searches and see if I can dig up some cool railroad shots at all.

It is OK Noah. That is a quote from the post when he explained that he was not able to go to a trainshow. I felt blindsided when he made that remark. I know it seems kinda dumb, but I did feel like I was kind blindsided. Just what I felt.
Colin,
I’d take that quote more as a joke personally. At least when I read it it doesn’t seem like he was trying to offend you, it seemed more like he was making a joke about his friend.
Just the way I interpret it,
Noah
I kinda see it that way now.
James, sorry for getting so worked up about it. This last month has been really stressful, so I am sorry that I got worked up about it.
Kale, i remember that train…
"Hey, arent they supposed to take the wye…“WOOOOOOSH”…slow?
BTW James, do you have explict permission from the photogrpaher touse your sig pics? Becuz you canget in serious trouble.
Well, this BLOWZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Well, my first game is at 2 PM. So i may be able to come a little early. I see it starts at 10, so if you guys can come down early, i might be able to see you. Depends on what my mom says though.

Tmcc man, that was Max I was talking about. I didn’t mean to make it look like you. I forgot to put in his name. Please except my apology.
Ah Max what in the world are you talking about, “do you have permission to use those sigs???” I have had those forever…( probably half the year already) why would you care…No affence… Plus it’s a place where you can download those. I can’t believe you haven’t noticed. LOL.[(-D]
Anyway. I also have to agree with Kale on the Ford even though I liked to drive them.
GP9 with sound… ya… Thats what I have decided to buy instead of the GP38-2. I’ll just buy the GP38-2 on ebay. [:D]
James
Apology accepted.
