  well was going to respond to a post but its locked so guess it was to something. oh well. at any rate I've found that if you post a topic or ask a question if no one knows you they kind of wait and see if your an okay poster before replying.I have learned to not post things that bash or say something is not correct as it seems to ailienate some. this may even get the boot. we can ask helpful questions but can't say if something is  not good. its a shame we can't voice unhappiness on forums with what ever it may be. but such is life. I like it here and other forums there seems to be help if your willing to ask politely and not get into a war of words so to speak. so hope you all have a nice weekend and can run some trains and drift into a world of what dreams were made from.

The train forums are decent sources of information, and for kibitzing, but they are no substitute for really running your trains. I don't see or participate on the forums until I get home from work, and none of them seem to hold my attention for more than a few minutes. I'd rather be downstairs working on our layout(s), making freight loads for cars, or just running trains. I think that for many here and on the other forums, talking trains on-line has become as much, if not more of a hobby as running trains.

Great thearpy for some.  Gives a sence of friendship to some.  Met a lot of good people from this forum while traveling the USA.  Had not been for this forum and a fishing forum, would have missed meeting a lot of outstanding people.  Hope to meet more.

Dr. John and Dennis in Prattville, AL.

Doug Wallace at train museum in CA.

Chuck Matthews [the older guy]

Roy M [the ugly guy]

Jumbijo [still the ugly one]

Dennis and family several years ago in Savannah.

Buckeye [still the ugly one]

Bob Nelson

OOPS, his dog, now Bob

John F's layout

The greatest of them all.  The GREAT GRITS CAPER.  When this REB slipped the GRITS to the Yankees in Harrisburg PA.

There have been others [like Shake and Bake, Don Baker] that I can not find the pictures right now.

Enjoy.

Buckeye, could not find the one of you and I at Rogers Corner.  That is the one of you holding the big bag of GRITS. Laugh [(-D]

If I was only in one of those pictures.... I really wonder if Chief can make it down to Savannah in his ever-shortening career..... Wink [;)]

If I do get back, you will be the first to know, then Dennis.
