Bob's TRain Box 3 online now

Those were nice NYC passenger cars in the box behind Bob. I always loved that style.

That actually surprised me, too (I"m on the TR and CT newsletter lists) so I suggested to the boss that we might want to see if The Powers That Be would let us team up with Classic Trains ...

Heh heh.  BK said diaphram.

But seriously, on the shameless self-promotion thingie,  The Mother Ship emailed me an offer to buy both TRAINS  and  CLASSIS TRAINS for $49.99.  I almost pulled the trigger, until I realized it wasn't TRAINS plus CLASSIC TOY TRAINS.  I would, however, pull the trigger on that tandem.  Howzabout bumpin' that one up to the suits...

Don't worry, when I'm done shooting them for the mag, they'll go home to Pennsylvania!

Nice passenger consist from Weaver, but isn't it a bit suspicious that they send a set in NYC colors? Hmmmmm.....

[ttt]

Yup, it works.  Nice cars!  I wish I had some of those in PRR.

Let me give a tip 'o the hat to Keith Bauer in our IS shop who was able to balance a ton of "must be done now" stuff and still tweak and upload the uncorrupted file late on a Friday afternoon!

If your IS department can't fix it - try that new box opener on their file server.

Looks to me like that thing could fix most any problem with a good swing!  Are those for sale on TRAINS.COM website?

[Bob Keller]

Please Stand By ... our IS technicians are working to resolve the problem ... (insert static sound here)

Great

A cliff-hanger

...what if I can't wait til the next episode?

[Bob Keller]

Thanks for letting me know - I'm re-exporting the file to IS to re-load.

When I tried to watch it, it got cut off and I couldn't see what was in the box from Weaver but when I moved my cursor across the video to click play, I saw what was in the box.  What happened?

[Berk765]

I hope it was a steam locomotive in the box. Nice train box Mr. Bob!!! Keep it up I love it.

[SotaPop]

For a moment there I thought that new box opener got away from the operator!

I'm glad he recovered!

Some very nice items in this session - makes me consider branching off into S scale -  I especially appreciated the unveiling of the official BTB box opener.

Bob.......was wondering how many hours the makeup folks have to work on you prior to the shoot to make you look acceptable.

Featuring an MTH GE Dash 8 40C, cars by S-Helper and Town & Country, catalogs galore are flashed at the camera, I promo Classic Trains magazine's Fast Trains special, and I open a box from Weaver Models.
