<p>Good Morning!</p> <p>Yesterdays storm died down in the small hours of this morning. Although it was not as bad as the one before in terms of mph, it caused a lot more damage, but no loss of life. Right now it is calm with a clear blue sky, but temperatures are short of freezing only. There are birds singing outside. This is January!</p> <p>Flo, a large mug of coffee, please. Still need to go lightly on the food.</p> <p>Jeff - up until the early 1980´s, German Railways had coaches in use, which were built-ups on the chassis of pre-WW I 3-axle cars. They had padded seats, but the ride was something else.</p> <p>The 2-6-0 loco you saw was most likely one of these:</p> <p><img src="http://www.klgv-oelpfad.de/images/bahn/br_24_007.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></p> <p>It was nicknamed "Prairie Horse" and was the only 2-6-0 remaining in service after WW II.</p> <p>Galaxy - I am really sorry to hear about your continuing back pain. Are you sure there is no further treatment? I do hope there is.</p> <p>I will be going for a walk - making use of the nice weather as long as it lasts.</p> <p>Have a good one!</p>
