Just got off the phone with my wife and she sent me to the www.internettrainsonline.com ho/athearn genesis/page 7 and there it was!..she then explained that she ordered me the UP SD MAC 70 (with the flag) for a Valentine’s day present…My wife does love me!..(I just hope it’s in stock and i don’t have to wait a zillion years to get it.)…Chuck
Here’s to your wife, long may she wave! I gave myself a Valentines’ present by going to the local (Roseville) train show this weekend and picking up six Accurail ART reefers. Was going to look for a locomotive (like I NEED another loco, right?) but all anyone seemed to have in steam were old–and I mean OLD–Rivarossi’s. Oh well, I have a happy reefer fleet, LOL!

cwclark,
Way cool!!! Look like you have a fantastic spouse that is in tune with you (isn’t that what spouses are suppose to be?). Hopefully there’s a forum somewhere on the net where she is posting what a great gift she got from her husband the train nut. She does have a reason to post something right?
Lucky you! I was sitting up in my office and got a call that someone was downstairs for me, I went down and was greeted by a group of men in tuxes…it was a local chorus, they handed me a flower, a card, and candy as they sang “Let Me Call You Sweetheart”…it was videotaped too. Caught me totally off-guard. Good times.
Your wife rocks!!! [:)]
I can’t wait to see what my wife has gotten me, she said she has yet to go get it because she is sick. Last year she got me a C&O Genesis Mikedo.
let me tell you a valentines gift my wife, then girl friend gave me back in 1997 she had a charm made up in local jeweler, a gold charm to wear on my chain in shape of steam train with a diamond as a headlight the jeweler made casting for himself but never poured it untill then its a one of a kind it gets noticed all the time, she has yet to tell me the price ah the cost of true love! btw she let me spend 200.00 on a lionel ho challenger 4664 this weekend, great deal so i guess she still loves me!
