<p>Good Afternoon!</p> <p>I was busy all morning, writing up a political editorial comment for an online newspaper, which has already published a number of articles I wrote. There is no money in it and no fame, just for the fun of letting off some steam! It also helped me to set my mind on other issues.</p> <p>[quote user="blownout cylinder"]Health is much better therfor...Whistling[/quote]</p> <p>Barry - that´s good news! Carry on improving!</p> <p>The Bemo track on my layout proves to be a bad choice! It was for free, so I have no reason to complain, but keepin the track clean is a major hassle. Actually, the track is not made by Bemo, but by Shinohara and, honestly, the quality is not that of Peco track. So far, I have used one of those track cleaning rubbers, but they provide help only for a rather short period of time. This time I tried something new (to me) - I took a metal polish paste design to clean and polish stainless steel sinks et. al. and carefully rubbed it onto the railheads. After it had dried I polished it off and the trains seem to run a lot better. I think this is what is called "gleaming", isn´t it?</p> <p>Well, lets wait and see the long term effects of it.</p> <p>Ken - I don´t think I am chasing high standards. Wait until you see those areas you don´t see in the pictures!</p> <p>YGW - I agree the layout deserves to be populated by some figures. I still have quite a few left over from previous activities, but cannot place them as long as I don´t have the catenary erected. With my luck, I glue the figures exactly where a mast has to be.</p> <p>Good to hear the news on your SIL´s improvement!</p> <p>Janie, coffee and a cinnamon roll, please!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
