...as a boastful diatribe. I am just excited and feel like I accomplished something. As insignificant as it will appear to the grizzled veterans among you it is a major benchmark for me. <br />Last night a Western Pacific F7 A/B unit pulled seven boxcars in a circle in my garage. <br />Now, before you ridicule me, which incidently I hope you do not, please understand that I am a little over a month into this realm, and two weeks of this time I spent in the hospital with my wife and our new son who remains there yet. However I have built benchwork, added some lighting and electrical work to our garage, completed a few boxcars and last night conected a loop of true track to a MRC power pack and it worked; innitially I had my doubts. <br />We, myself and my 5-year-old son, were giddy with delight. Perhaps me more so as I found myself being very protective of "my" train and very hesitant to let him touch or run the engine. I took some pictures and would like to post them here to share what I have been doing and learning with you folks, but I am having a hard time with the digital camera software for now. I will continue to work on the camera aspect though because so many of you in a number of ways have contributed to my model railroad. I would like you to see what I, with your help, have done. Even though in reality you could probably care less[:)] <br />Respectfully, <br />Jacob
