<p>Afternoon, Folks!</p> <p>I have cooled off sufficiently to come in and sit a spell at the RC. Things are more than rough at this end - some of you have received an email from me explaining the situation Petra and I face here.</p> <p>Ray - there is something wrong with all of the pictures. The guy who shot the photo must have been over 10ft tall or standing on something of that height. I wonder how he managed to escape from being overrun by the train when it came closer. Seriously, the pictures would improve dramatically if you could get the lens closer to the ground.</p> <p>A friend of mine from Switzerland sent a surprise gift, which was in todays mail.</p> <p><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/P1100427_zpslpcefofj.jpg" alt=" " /></p> <p>It´s a 1960´s Saurer bus operated by the Swiss PTT, a highly detailed metal diecast HO scale model. Quite an expensive gift at about $ 50! He didn´t like my "wrong" Daimler-Benz bus, as the Swiss PTT never owned and operated one of those. The top half of that bus comes off, so I´ll be able to populate it with a driver and a few passengers.</p> <p>Looks nice!</p> <p> My friend Lothar will be coming over to our place tomorrow to enjoy a slice of Petra´s Easter cake and to help me install the backdrop. This will be the last big item to get done on the layout for a while, as I have to feed the piggy bank with any extra change befor I can buy the stuff I need for the catenary.</p>
