As you can tell, it’s time to rename this place. We are still the same, with the train layouts and the Diner in it’s same location: just a new name.
We can still talk trains, and whatever else you wish to talk about. But still no alcoholic beverages will be allowed in here.
Just to let everyone know, I talked with our esteemed owner, JHH, the other day. He’s doing all right; just staying very busy with the railroad there in North Little Rock. Also, he’s probably not going to be around, as he is getting ready to go back to school, for a degree. He just hasn’t decided which degree. Said he’ll probably try for a management degree. We wish him all the best!!
On our Friday Fish Fry menu today: cod, haddock, hallibut, flounder, perch and salmon patties. Side dishes: corn on the cob, baked beans, fries, cornbread.
Desserts today: chocolate cake, yellow cake w/caramel icing, and the following pies: chocolate, apple, peach and cherry. (Need to start baking some more pecan pies!)
If you need anything, just give a holler, as I’ll be in the back, baking pies and cakes and cobblers for next week.
Thanks CW, and please allow me to be the first customer in the newly renamed Coffee Shop. I too am looking forward to spring so we can get rid of the ice and snow and get back to sitting in our lawn chairs trackside watching the BNSF parade through Eola or Rochelle, etc.
I like your menu for today very much so thanks (but there goes my waist line AGAIN).
In addition to alcohol being understandably taboo here in the Coffee Shop, can we also say a big NO NO to drugs of any kind?
As my name, dining car, suggests I will enjoy the creations of CW even tho I must have them forwarded to Prescott, AZ where there is a light snow falling. Yes snow. My home is at 5600 feet in the AZ mountains. It is also near the BNSF Transcon for train watching and scanner chatter between trains and the Fort Worth DS.
Took my bride (of several years) out for dinner and music last night so am now off the hook until May, her birthday. Don’t bet on it, we may go put agian tonight. But CW please send some of your goodies when they come out of the oven.
Howdy and hawaiia hawaiia hawaiia. This was somewhat expected, but surprised me still. So, CW, thanks for starting things back up. Mookie, that’ll learn ya durn ya for missing a day at the Diner. Are we gonna name the place this time? Everybody have a good Friday.
[(-D] How convenient, that you skipped right past winter, and into spring. We’re struggling to keep it above 0 today, so I guess our spring is still a little on the nippy side.[;)]
…Our 1" of the stuff is having a difficult time surviving today as it’s above freezing. And the sun is out occasionally so it’s not going to last much longer. Much more daylight now, so Spring is rolling in fast.
March can be full of surprises but in general, they don’t last very long.
They just issued another Winter Storm Watch for us starting late Saturday night into Sunday- up to 6 more inches of the white [censored]. And the long-range forecast doesn’t look a whole lot better…
In my way of thinking, March 1st should be the first day of Spring, but at least in South Dakota, winter has been known to hang on here well into the month of April. I, like Brian, am getting awfully tired of the sub-zero temperatures & the white [censored]. I wish I could pack up and start life anew in a much warmer location, but for me, doing so is not that simple.
Everyone is more than welcome to suggest some good names for the Diner and CS; I’ve been picking my brain, but haven’t come up with anything that sounds really good. So you all give me some suggestions, and hopefully, we’ll come up with something everyone can agree on. Then, I’ll change the thread name.
Now then: the next round of our Friday Fish Fry is now on the warmer bar.
hey you are welcome to come eat at Joes. just let us know how many are coming over.matt will run trains for you.(and eat your fries)The maw had both engines working in defiance today.CSX also set up a testing pylon at FC.They are still there and things are getting a little crowded.Cw as usual thanks for supper.
My apologies Joe, I forgot that you could very easily run a diner of your own under that name…I will just have to come over some day soon and partake of the menu delights!
Here is greater suburbia we have dogs all over the place, including my 85 pound Golden Retriever “Amber” who does here share of keeping some of the snow yellow this time of the year. Thankfully nature covers the yellow with fresh white every few days.
