I'll start it again this week....[:D]

This is my unaltered trackplan.



(thortrains.net)

I have altered it by taking the trolly line and putting a switch there. I am also going to make a trestle that goes around the track.

Good Morning All,

It’s a rainy day in NE Ohio. Temp is 42 and going up to 48 with it going down to 37 tonite.

Great job starting this today, Jerry. It looks like you got this photo thing down pat.

This week we wanted to share some of our passenger trains with you .
This is the Texas & Pacific leaving the station.


Who is that fishing in the pond[?] Is it Jim Duda and the Chief [?]

Spankster and all...
Duda is the one with the stringer full...Chiefie is the one with the bare hook! He needs to learn how to fish from a yankee...!

Here's a couple for all you MTH guys that have DITCH LIGHTS on your diesels. The chronometer says I had 34 hours on this one before ONE of the ditch lights went out. At first I thought it might be the LED or lamp itself, so I opened it up and found where one of the pairs of springs was not contacting the control pad because the black plastic block that encapsulates the springs was too loose on the mounting post, allowing it to "rock" too much, lifting the springs away from their pads. You'll understand better if you have to take the shell off of yours. Bob Nelson will love my "High Tech" method of fixing it...(wink)

Bottom line: (Not fishing line, Spank!) Just because a light goes out doesn't necessarily mean the lamp is burned out...check its connections!!!

Dang good pictures and great info old man [Jim]. Now I think the old man is tell one of his "dinkies" about who catches all the fish. [:D] Probably Buckeye.
