[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Paul W. Beverung Hi Gang; Well the plan for tommrow is to go to the GATS about 1pm and get the exchange. Then take the new loco home and test it out. If there is a problem I can get back with Brad on Sunday. Lets look at the bright side though,O.K? Even with all the problems I've met some good dealers that I will deal with again. Paul the Duluth, Superior, & Southeastern " The Superior Route " [/quote] Paul: Try the test rack at the show before you leave it might save you a trip. All of the GATS shows that I've been to have always had a test track for the buyers. If you ask, one of the clubs will usually let you run the loco on their layout - you will probably have to do zero streaching but what the heck. Most clubs like to see a new loco run even if it's not a members. I guess it's like looking at the neighbors new car and enjoying his pride in a new purchase. John: Did Sven come to see you about your sNOW requirements and run into Rosie-the-dog first? I think that your layout is comming along nicely, if you wern't so far away I'd come back to look at it. Ed: When do we get some more pictures of your endever? Fergie: I enjoyed our conversation last night - glad that you're home again and we can get some more of your humor. Lisa's got the right idea (that means I agree) "how do you know how the back is doing, if you're on the pills all day and can't feel the pain to stop straining the back?" It's a nice rainy day and a good reason to go up stairs, put on some Roger Whitaker music, lay some track, and play all day. I'm sure that when Stephanie gets up she'll see something that needs to be cleaned a little better. (Maybe mom can do it Hey, Hey, Hey) My decoders from BLI came in yesterday so that is a "pressing" problem. For the un-initated, the 4-8-4 comes standard with a three chuff per revolution sound instead of four chuffs per revolution. BLI will send out the new chip and only ask that you return the old one. When we were at Fergies no one noticed the three chuffs so I feel that it's not a great problem. If you listen to those darn "Rivet Counters" you'd think that it was the end of the world. On one of the threads on the forum awhile back someone was complaining about the drive axles being silver instead of black, I e-mailed and ask him how many he owned, you know the answer NONE. My reply was quit bitchin' and get a life. Some people can only go up by putting someone else down, I sure feel sorry for them. Well let me go play for awhile. Ya'll have a blessed day and remember SANTA FE ALL THE WAY Bob
