Christopher - Dayton makes a good (but pricey) fan motor suitable for a spray booth. Check w/ your nearest Granger supplier. FYI - most commercially available spray booths marketed to hobbyists do not have a truly suitable 'explosion proof' fan motor, inspite of how pricey those booths are . . . Jim - good luck on your certification tests ! Noah - I watched a DRG&W weed train in the Colorado River Canyon some years back while traveling on Interstate 70 enroute to Denver from California. It was running real slow and stunk to high heaven. I got a few pictures misplaced somewhere. All I remember is that it was all black and filthy, mostly old tank cars, and looked absolutely like a derelict train that was over-weathered. I can just imagine what the crew looked (and smelled) like at the end of their shift. It would make an interesting MOW model consist. Phil - everything quiet re: what we discussed last week? How's the rain these days? We're getting some every day now - so much for the drought the environmentalists were panicking about last year ! We had a reprieve during the day yesterday and I was able to get a 8'x8' hot tub spa, that was on the property when we purchased it, cleaned, tested-out, sold, and delivered before the heavens let go again last night. Lupo - enjoyed your portrait that you posted. It's always a bit strange to eventually see what someone looks like after you have only talked w/ them over the phone, or on-line. You do look somewhat like I imagined, however. I haven't forgotten to get back to you re: the UP stuff - I've had the mean ol' boss leaning on me to make some progress in the shop, and that's about all I've been doing lately. I'll definitely get it to you this week. You said you were interested in MOW equipment. Specifically what? I enjoy kitbashing MOW stuff, because it's the perfect opportunity to make anything anyway you want, as long as you're freelancing. . . It is getting increasingly difficult for me to not freelance my new layout the more I consider what I want to incorporate on my layout. Maybe it's the threat of the rivet counters that I want to avoid. . .Or is it simply that I have seen so many interesting railroads all over the US over the years. I think I got over zealous in my blocking unwanted computer addresses on my PC's firewall, for I've inadvertenly blocked out a bunch of emails that shouldn't have been blocked - incl. some of my wife's clients. Woops ! It's hard for old dogs to learn new tricks, and I'm still on a long slope of a learning curve, and I'd better sand the rails before sliding down the hill, all the way to a slide rule and a 35 volume set of encyclopedias ! Coffee's cold and I'm sleepy. Nite all - BILL
