Good read, Rick. It was interesting.

I had to point this out on a sidenote. When I read this: "I hang out with a group of HO'rs on Friday nights " I had to read it over a couple times!! [:D][:D] Then I realized you were referring to H.O. scale model railroaders. Just kidding!

As some of you old timers here know, I hang out with a group of HO'rs on Friday nights and help work on John Green's layout in Vancouver, BC. Vancouver's local community newspaper just recently did a fairly decent article on John's layout. Unfortunately to make it "net" friendly, many of the pics were left out, including a group photo.

Anyways I thought I would throw in this link of John's "Kettle Valley" layout in HO. The "Kettle Valley" was a CP link, and it will be further explained in the story, if you so chose to read it:

By the way, Mike Chandler is mentioned in the article and is the chap who won the model building contest at the Seattle NMRA convention this past July, he won 124 out of 125 points for his Berkshire engine scratch built over 5 years.
