<p> Good Morning Everyone,</p><p>another weekend of non-MRRing is over - and so is the nice weather. It is r*iny and "dull" outside - time to enjoy a good breakfast here in the Diner.</p><p>Chloe, I´ll have my usual French breakfast, please - I´ll be in the corner booth, watching that switcher.</p><p>Good to see, that some familiar faces are back again - hearty [#welcome] gain!</p><p>Yesterday, I received the news that a dear friend of mine has died of cancer, aged 68. In my youth days, he was my mentor, who taught me the use of an airbrush. He was an expert modeler, who built many a loco from scratch - a most unusual venue in those days in Germany. He was the one, who got my gang and me started on narrow gauge model railroading and had helped us with numerous projects. I owe much to him - thank you Karl, for those endless hours, burning midnight oil, to get that Westside D&RGW T-12 up and running! We will miss you!</p><p>My [angel] go to his family.</p><p> Edit:</p><p>I have, again, been dabbling around with my track planning tool - still in search of what to do best with that 2´by 6´ door I have. My mind wandered off to the iNsane scale and I came up with a slightly modified Beer Line. Just for you guys who are collecting track plan ideas:</p><p><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/N-SCALEBEERLINE2.jpg?t=1272272627" mce_src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/N-SCALEBEERLINE2.jpg?t=1272272627" width="833" height="475"></p><p>Hey, I just noticed, that I have now joined the ranks of the top 200 contributors. Still a long way to go until I´ll be even with Jeff´s 13,000 + posts! <br></p><p> </p>
