I thought the reference was rather obvious, but what do I know?

BRAKIE LOOK! There's Jane Fonda on her Honda!

I agree -- can't be. She wrecked her Honda in the second floor passageway, north end, of Main Building at Vassar College. And she couldn't even graduate, either.

railbaron18 Is your boxcar half full, or half empty?--- You'll never know until you start opening some doors! (ask yourself who you are, what you have, and what you want to do/have) --- then write your switchlist! (plan order of actions to achieve desired outcome) ---If you find that their isn't room to ''switch all cars'', switch those with highest priority first, then shove the others on an empty siding and switch them later. (when unable to do everything you want to, do what is most important to you/your family & friends, then write down everything else and try and come back to them when/if time permits. What are your thoughts or experiences that you'd like to share or discuss?

It may all seem unkind to you, most of the responses so far. I hope you won't take it that way...maybe aloofness is what it is. However, if I have it right, your question or point isn't clear to us. You speak metaphorically, or use an analogy if that works better, but we don't really know the context.

Hi,
I can't speak for these guys but I think the reason you are getting a bunch of silly responses to your post is that it doesn't say anything. I'm not sure if this is advice or what? I think if you would like to be philosophical, may I suggest commenting on the Philosophy Friday thread. Lot's of interesting debate there.

I think your box car door is open....
better fix that...
your cargo could fall out...
The only open door box cars i ever saw on the real railroads were on empties. Cargo wouldn't show. THe RR wouldn't want cargo to fall out or be stolen.

After long and careful thought, they have convinced me. I have come to the conclusion that they are right. The aliens did it.
Actually it is a point well taken though.
The usual way to do things is to prioritize what can be done vs what you WISH could be done. Step by step-in other words.
meh....
railbaron18 I'm sorry, but I'm only 17- why are you referencing Jane Fonda?

Age has nothing to do with it, whether you are 17 or 77. Let this be a lesson to you to never start a post on a Holiday afternoon. Looks like the boys were tanked by 7 PM. LOL
On a serious note, your observations are heavily operations oriented, and I suspect that only the most dedicated model railroader would take such considerations into account when operating his layout. Nevertheless, it sounds pretty cool to take operations to this level. Do you actually take such considerations into account when operating your layout?
