Glad you made it to Roanoke and the Link Museum. Whenever 611 joins the other two there they will have the big three again. I don't know about the future of the Y3 or if it is only on loan. All set for my kidney stone procedure tomorrow around 6:00PM. Say I can go home after but I will believe that when I see it. My son will stay with me if needed the first night. I passed one stone myself today. One down, 6 to go.

PHISH congrats on new place.
Fife missed you at York. Maybe next time I can convince the other half to go back up there.
Brent missed you also, same thing maybe next time.
Even thou our time there was short ( friday Morning till 1:30 P.M. ) we really enjoyed ourselves and meeting others from this forum.
Talk to you all later

Phish - Congrats on the new layou-er-house. I'm challenging you to think vertical; 3 tiers; 4 trains running. Trimmed out super sweet with shelving. Some of the best layouts I've seen are space limited. Remember Kooljock's masterpiece? And, yeah, lighting first. I'm already excited for future SPF's.
Roy - It was Hudson John that got me hooked on lemon icecream.
JimPhish - Congas onthe new digs!!
Glad the Yorkies all had a good time, maybe October, I wanted to go, just needed to recover from my cold.
Fife, thanks, you really didn't need to tell me about that firehouse, did you...
I'll have to see if I can break the budget for that one.....geeez...
OK gotta get back. Happy MAY!!

Afternoon all!
Back from York. Got in late yesterday. It was great meeting all the guys - and the special appearances by RT, Don, & da Chief. Got the video tour of the progress on the Rustang - great job by H John with the students. When he said it was a Rustang he was not kidding! The frame is so thin you can see the air inside!
Picked up a 1990's Lionel Classics std ga 381E & the matching 3 two-tone green state cars for 1/2 the current going prices! Wowzers - didn't expect that!
For those that missed it - the ice cream social Friday afternoon was as great as always - HJohn - many many thanks again to Doray! Many stories about SJ's jammies...ooooo....
Buckeye - good to see your post - hope that means the procedures went well -
Oh - and I came home to get to go to Jury Duty this morning first thing - rode the light rail and then a bus downtown - and it was Jury Appreciation week! - free coffee and donuts in the Central Jury Room! Had 4 or each!
Regards, Roy
Thanks Guys
I'm anxious to get planning and preping the room but that won't be for a few months. The room is finished but I want to get better lighting. It will be small, I guessing at this point ~ 6 x 10, with a 3 rail loop in addition to the AF 2 rail. Simple loops with lots of accesories operating.
Good morning!
Buckeyeland is experiencing a few thunderstorms this morning.
Still recovering from last Friday's surgery. Just soreness.
Congratulations Jim on the new house. Just remember in Southern Ohio, water runs down hill, fast!

Back from York and Roanoke VA. Don got his eyes full of trains, classification yards and shops. He got to see O. Winston Link Museum and its movie. Long drive to make it before 4 yesterday. Then had to wait for 1 today to get into the VA. Transprotation Museum. Got to see a A class and a Y class as well as some diesels.
Prayers for Buckeye and Fifey.
Great to get with all the Yanks. Those from NJ who I had never met before, pretty good guys [for Yanks that is].
Good to get to meet RT and Donna.
Have a great month ahead.
