The Coffee Shop (The coffee pot is on, come in and have a cup!)
Posted by Train 284 on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 6:43 PM
Hey everyone! All the other forums have a "Coffee Shop" where the members can just come to say "Hi!'. Many others have tried this on the Garden Railways forum, but have left and not to be heard from again. So I intend to keep this one going as long as possible. Stop by once in a while and chat with your fellow garden railroaders! Enjoy! [:)] [8D]

Hey Matt,

Sometimes they get so "involved", they forget we have a coffee shop.

Perhaps Rene should just shift some of the "interesting posts" to the coffee shop, that would take care of the traffic.[}:)][;)][}:)][:D][:D]

PS sheesh did you "copy" my RhB Window on your website??? I don't believe it!! [:I][:)][:I] OTOH.............ah never mind![:D][:D][:D]

Then I guess we ought to put something interesting in the posts so they keep on top!

I have a "coffee shop" in my back yard. I have an espresso machine, and serve up for my buddies Saturday and Sunday morning. We read the paper, bs, and run trains. It doesn't get much better! The trains usually run in display mode, around and around.

The previous meeting were short amounts of display mode interspersed with "crash mode" I had a dip in the track where the train uncoupled, and then the 2 USA F units travelled around until they smashed the end of the train. That usually gets our attention!
