Happy Rainy Wednesday!!!
Rained yesterday afternoon and all night, raining very hard now (Thanks for the Heads Up Dennis!).
Nice to see Jack back in the mix. Conga’s on the Grandbaby Jack!!!
for all that need ‘em...I’m getting old timers disease...can’t remember who or what (Brutus, hope the wife and the back are better).
Ray – feel for ya, and I second Fife’s comment. Who coordinates this stuff?? MORONS!
Chief, hope you got a lifetime subscription to that fine periodical!
Nothing much on the train front right now, I have some red and white thing on the train table need to run and get pictures of, hope that it’ll be tonight or tomorrow.
Train Show in Deland Saturday, it’s supposed to rain all weekend, so that cancels out any HD riding to shows and BBQ’s. Then a possible Orlando trip on the 18th for ANOTHER train show. Definitely going to Orlando on the 24th, so as to deliver the Princess and her best friend to Warp Tour. I’ll spend that day doing something....not sure what just yet. Sounds like a day at the pool with some train related material. Who knows...
Check in later...!!

Chief see your now starting to move up in the world with such a great Magazine for your coffee table like that it won't be long befor you learn how to a great yankee like you should be. Now pats next. then reconvert dennis.
Chief glad your Tomatoes doing fine ours caught that blight they were talking hitting the east coast. I've talked to a few that this has happened to in this area. We did get a few good tomatoes from them at least. Will do it agian next year as were finally geting the soil about right here. between last year and this year of cultavating planting soil and all into the ground as we don't really have fair dirt here more like clay and dirt mix. but were getting it more dirt like each year as we add planting soil and all to it and I will when its over cultivate this years soil in the fall so I can add again in the spring and cultivate more in .
Last year we didn't get squat out of our plants I think we got like 3 from each and the biggest was about 1 1/2" around and they were not cherry toms.
Morning all. All going good had beast laugh this am with chiefs post. (thanks chief needed that)
Not to much happening today will get back later I hope

Now what I was going to post:

Now I am really impressed, with a subscription like that sitting on the Coffee Table, I'm sure the Chief will be the talk of the town. I can just imagine the Wake Weekly doing a "inside investigation" of a "Local Official Questioning Local Customs" Probably some feature article in upcoming edition??
Was trying to help another guy with his layout plans the other night, he was getting ready to wire some switches. So I told him I had plenty of wire he was welcome to as much as he needed. So he came over to get some. (I have a roll of 26 awg, solid twisted pair, 5,000 ft long). So we started to "reel" it off, he suggested we just seperate about 4" accross the roll and cut it. So NOW, I have one mell of a hess!!!!
Hopefully, the MJ thing is finally over! I doubt it though! People are just not willing to let go, especially where there is a buck to be made. Everyone I've talked to seems over saturated with the stuff, but it keeps coming anyway.
Has anyone had any real success with the Lionel IR detectors? They seem more problem than what they worth to me.
Hope everyone has a good day! And remember make sure all the Tardis passengers are accounted for!
Oh Yeah, Speaking of a Tin Roof, try ordering a "Black Cow" at a restaurant.

Good Mornin, Ya'll, from Cloudy and Rainy Taxachusetts,
Thanks to each of you for all of the public and private congratulations on the birth of our granddaughter. In my family, having children is no "gimme."
I was going to make an attempt to "catch up" on things here on the Pot but quickly realized that over a month away makes that an impossible task. It is like the world has passed me by. I feel especially bankrupt not knowing about so many serious family and health issues facing some of the Pot members, so I will start with prayers for all who need them and apologize for my ignorance until I can get back into the mainstream here.
We have just had the most sunless June on record here in Northeast MA. And the overcast skies and rain continue with little respite into July, except for three glorious sunny days for the July 4th weekend. Below normal temps too, global cooling I presume. This is the first time in 21 years of living here that we have not had to use the a/c this far into the summer. Getting the lawn mowed has become a dicey exercise of meteorological proportions and planning, and often just getting bits and pieces done in a race against the rain. I feel like Earnest Hemingway's Old Man and the Sea, standing out in a downpour and grilling dinner in a slicker and baseball cap. If I had some of Patrick's cattle, they would be grazing happily in the tall grass in my back yard. Even the dog doesn't want to go out. If you ever are confronted by a Doberman you are not sure of, just pull out a squirt gun. Beyond the toilet and their water bowl, they are not fond of H2O.
What happened? Everyone is giving it to the Chief. I can't think of one reason why he deserves that! But I can think of a lot of reasons. At least there is some stability and constants in the world we can depend upon.
I have fallen behind on maintenace and repair on my postwar pieces. Wiring that is finally giving up the ghost after about 6 decades (one engine and three streamliner passenger cars), and two engines with horns that became inoperable since Christmas. I need to get it in gear with some of these items. I was surprised to see the Lionel Spirit of 76 hardware that was on display on SPF in honor of July 4. If you read this forum thoroughly, that U36B (I have, nearly NIB) and the matching Bicentennial freight cars from 1974-1976 are never mentioned by anyone. And I would be curious about the red white and blue streamliners that one person showed in one photo......who made those? ID#'s?
While visiting family and the new granddaughter for a July 4 cookout, I noticed my other granddaughter (5) was watching an animated show that starred train engines. Not sure which Lionel clones these were, like Thomas, etc. That led to my suggestion that the granddaughters needed toy trains of their own, an idea that met with immediate concurrence from the 5 year old. The daughter and son-in- law, however, sat with stunned frowns, then tried to nip things in the bud by pointing out that their living arrangements were maxed out, that Grampy's trains filled the bill. My wife just smiled. I take this to be the unequivocal green light to buy something to add to the collection, don't you? After all, it's for the children.
My wife and I lost a close friend to a horrible automobile accident this past month. She was driving one of her dogs to an emergency veterinarian and had pulled over to the side of the road for some unknown reason. She was struck and killed outside her car by a passing motorist who was not charged in the incident, yet. The accident is still under investigation. But knowing exactly where the accident occured, 30 mph speed limit side street, the wide dead straight road, no visual obstructions, no weather-related issues, and a traffic signal less than 50 yards away, the bitter and cynical side of me says someone was in too much of a hurry and/or distracted to take care of their primary responsibility, focusing on safely driving that 5000 pound weapon. Her husband and family are devastated. I have to keep reminding myself that I am only given today to live.
Today make sure you hug your kids, grandkids, and better halfs. Give that honey do list the daily cursory glance and dismiss it. Then go and play with your trains.
Jack

Good Morning
Another great sunny start. Back from the docs, PB & EKG, normal.
A Tin Roof in Toledo when I was a lad was banilla ice cream, choclate syrup and peanuts on top.
Chief thats a fine looking magizne you got there I think it would be a great addition to the coffe table mags. show it proudly to all.
Tuck pointing is done got one hole in the patio to cement today as we had to cut back far enough to insert new bricks. Then I have a shi# load of brick/morter debris to try and get rid of. Church picnic tonite so jim will rest but oh boy more food to tempt me. I don't know how folks on diets can survive with so much temptation...S.J.

Morning to All,
Chief - I spit my coffeee all over the monitor when I saw your new magazine subscription. Must be a belated birthday present.
I have taken off the rest of this week to do some little projects like mowing and weeding, etc. Weather is gorgeous here in south central PA. I am going to run out for a haircut in a few and then may go clean up the train layout since I am forbidden from mowing until after the Mrs. has her laundry off of the clothesline. I guess we will have to make a grocery store run as we have no bread or milk, etc. Garden is doing well if you can call 4 tomato plants, a pepper plant, along with some lettuce, basil and arugala a garden.
Take care,
Mitch

Aloha all. I used to get that magazine. Congratulations, Jack. Glad mom and new granddaughter are doing fine. Nice catch, Kurt! You should find the NJZ tanker on the interchange at home. Workers shattered the glass in one of the new windows they were installing in my office - so I'm home today - glad something catch the shards before they fell on someone 15 floors below. Brutus, glad your back is feeling better. Looks like Pat and Bob are also on the mend. Ray, sorry about your son's accident. I thought the spectacle was ... disturbing. Looks like more rain here.

Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a beautiful day. 65 degrees and sunny. Going up to 80, with sunshine all day.
Today is a busy day. Wife is grocery shopping. I am working on a few projects around the house. Later, I will relax outside.
Jack....Congratulations on the new Granddaughter!!!!!!!!
Dining car was here for breakfast and headed to Points West.
Y'all have a great Wednesday.

8ntruckGot kidnapped on the Tardis tonight when it materialized in my neighborhood! Interesting chat with all on board. Pat - grits and sweet tea? Where I grew up, one did not start a batch of ice tea with simple syrup, and grits is the system to tell how rough your sand paper is :) As long as we are on the subject of regional food, who can correctly describe a tin roof sunday? Not much else going on.

Not much else going on.
The Tin roof sundae was a version of the Cherry sundae sold by Chester Platt in 1893. Platt's soda fountain in Ithaca New York was popular at the time and several area fountains added various toppings. Chocolate syrup and peanuts made up the "TIN ROOF" topping based on the original sound of the peanuts being removed from the cans in which they were sold, like the sound of rain on a tin roof.
8ntruck, are you using a yanky dictionary for the definition of Grits?
Jon - Ahhh, warm apple pie with ice cream. I love it. I may be being Midwesternized.
RT - As you know from your past life, farm work is never done -- so when you have the time.
Brutus - Farming is a lot of work. You have to love it, and I do.
Bob - If you are ever this way, we always have machinery that need tinkered with. More all the time, since we seem to be slipping towards a Ma & Pa Kettle operation. I was warned my toy train obsession would lead to this. O well, do need to feed my habit.
For those who haven't done it, don't miss the video tours on Buckeye's web site. Well worth the time. Check them out at http://lioneltrains2.shutterfly.com/
kpalak - Great catch.

Morning all. Not very busy today as we only have a few smaller cases...but we must remember, to the patient, it is still a big deal! Temps have been down as we have had one thunderstorm after another.
Brutus, you may also want to check with the hospital regarding the testing. I know that they have had organizations that will sponsor folks to the tune that the cost for marrow testing can be as low as $50.00. That is quite reasonable. They may have some regulations in that the person tested has to stay within the data bank for a period of time, should another person "Match" and need a donor.
Just trying to catch up on paperwork. Got a bunch of articles to read and had to register for the states epidemiology report as they are going paperless and will now start having it emailed. Not sure I like that as I already get over 600 emails a day.
Has anyone taken a good look at the advertisement of the "Rare Collection", WWW.GOMOTORBIDS.COM that shows on the right side of the screen on this site? That is one handsome looking locomotive there. I'd love to add something like that on my pike. Oh, someday!
God Bless,Dennis

Good morning all,
It is cloudy and threatening to rain in SE Indiana. I practiced with "my" soccer girls last night and then did weights at the YMCA. I did not have to drive today and managed to get an extra half hour of sleep. I had bran muffins on the dining car for breakfast and sent the rest to "Points East". All shipments south have re-routed west as they were constantly being rejected by a North Carolina politician :-) Beacon is lit for pickup after the game tonight. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
Morning all!
Brutus: Prayers for your Bride. Spent a lot of time thinking about you this week.
Back to civilization. Nice trip! Great weather. The fish were biting! Here's the 20-3/4" Walleye Bride hooked, and said "uh oh". No net, no ruler, no camera....raced back to cabin, (just across the lake) and roused the family. Released the fish, and was ok. I did have the winner for the week: 25" walleye, (released as it was inthe slot for the lake). Took 4-yo out a number of times and was dooing my best to keep hooks baited, and fish released. Sunnies, and rock bass a plenty.
Mornin' boys. Sunny & 63 here in the Mid-Atlantic region. Got a package yesterday, my new stern-rail seats for my Hunter came in, woo-hoo. Plan to go sailing at sunset with friends of ours.
mitchie - Sounds like a wonderful vacation...but you didn't call...
SPMan - You touched on a lot of my boiling points. Trust me, those who pull the strings on these events could care less, only that they might get their picture taken with this so-and-so or that uppity-up. Glad the boy is ok.
Brutus (Jim)......I am not sure who your health insurance is with but mine is United Health care and when my daughter was being tested as a possible kidney match for me my insurance covered it. In fact the testing was coordinated by the same transplant group that was handling mine, just a different staff for that aspect. I am not 100% positive but I believe they would have coved all the hospitalization and medical bill had she been the donor. If I remember correctly the only thing they would not cover was travel expenses to get here and back from where ever. Best of luck as you travel down the transplant highway!
Ken
Mitch - sounds like a great vacation - love the scenery!
Ray - prayers for your son!
Jack - Big Congrats (again)!
Back is a lot better today - went to work, but wife had some van trouble so I took off early and took her to some appointments. Dennis, you were right and they are going to put her on Procrit or another therapy to cut down on the number of transfusions and help prevent iron overloading. One good piece of info we learned is that if the transplant is successful, she should actually lose all the scar tissue in about a year or so? They said it is actually collagen? Learn something new every day it seems. HLA testing done for wife today, as well as a lot of other lab work. Waiting for word that insurance will pay for her sister(s) to be tested - it's a problem, because it's our insurance and we want it to pay for them to get tested. With the 2 sisters, we have about a 45 percent chance of a match, so wish us luck!
Love the wise farmer sayings - hope you get some help, Pat! Sounds like a lot of work. I am glad you are so far on the mend
I finished a book I have been reading on model railways (from England) and have another by the same author that looks promising as well.
Nice talks tonight with RT, 8nTruck, Charlie and Sir James! Actually twice with Sir James, as I called him while I was waiting on someone earlier - glad to hear you got all that brickwork done!
TARDIS is ready, so let's get going
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
Evening All,
Have not been around for a week or so. We had a wonderful visit to Bar Harbor, Maine. Had lots of lobster and took a nap almost every day. Now that's a vacation. No trains while on vacation. Saw a train shop on some of our travels called Maine-ly Trains but it was closed.
Congrats to you and your family Jack.
Jack congrats to you and your family.. what a blessing!!!

Good evening
Jack-Congrats to you and the family.
Another perfect day weather wise. Mid 70s.
Waiting for the Tardis, banilla on ice...S.J.
Jack, congratulations on the grandchild. I know she will be loved so much. Glad Momma and baby are well. Now, don't spoil her too much....like that's going to happen Oh, go ahead, you know you'll love every minute of spoiling her!
Ray, sorry to hear about your son's incident. At least he is OK and not hurt. I personally don't like all the spectacle over this person. He was talented, but his character flaws are too great to deserve the honors.
Bob, in order to season a cast iron pan, We would thoroughly clean the pan, completely dry it. Then, take Crisco cooking grease (not the oil) and with a paper towel, smear it all around the inside of the pan with a good heavy coat. Then, cook it down in the oven for about 30 minutes at 300 degrees (If memory serves me, but you may want to check time/temp on the NET). Afterwards, wipe it clean with a paper towel and you are done. You don't want to clean it out with soap and water in the future, unless you repeat the seasoning procedure. Also, you can take some cooking oil and coat the outside to prevent rust if you ever use it outside. If you keep this up, they last for ever.
Well, we took the kids to a indoor playground that has all kinds of inflatable slides and rides. Was fun. We then went to dinner with some good 'Ol Southern BBQ with some friends. Great time had by all. Look forward to a nice quiet night.
Did go by HobbyTown and lighten them of one switch today. (Oh, and I needed rights, not lefts, good thing I looked). First "new" piece of equipment I've bought. As I suspected was O-27 and 27" radius and had been on the shelf a few years so the price reflected as much. Was a little disappointed that they no longer use a light, but I guess it uses less power. I was impressed the directions included a modification to power it separately. Not too many new things anymore that tell you to go ahead and cut this, tape that, and solder the other.
So now I have 3 working lefts and two rights. One of the old 1121's was slightly damaged and missing enough parts that it may be just parts itself. I found some interesting 4 X 6 O-27 layout designs online that I want to modify to 4 X 8. At leat now I can start playing around. How many switches can the RW-110 run w/o causing issues? I have another smaller trans I could hook up if necessary.
Ray - too bad about your son and all the hullabaloo. When I was in field camp the OJ thing went down. We had gone into town for the day off and since we had been in the field for the last month or so were actually interested in watching TV. All the stations were showing was this slow motion escort of a white Bronco. Too bad they won't just leave this stuff to the family.
And now for something completely different: what's the best way to season an iron frying pan? I know someone (most likely someones) in this group knows...

Buckeye forgot to mention the warm home made apple pie a la mode. It's a midwestern thing, not sure they would understand the menu in Caroliner. It was a wonderful day, hope Buckeye is enjoying that new Premier loco, thanks also to the rest of the crew for attending--what a day
Jon
So many roads, so little time.
Don't blame you Ray. I'm sure it was holy mess out there today. Sorry to hear about your sons incident. hope he had a better day the rest of the day. I guess the best part is he was fine as you didn't say anything about any injuries. I would be thank-ful for that.
Not to much happening finally got an engine I took apart about 6 months ago to replace the smoke unit in it back together today ( just laziness on my part) Man did I pay for it thou as had a time getting all to fit right. it didn't want to go back in right and forgot to put bulb back in it but that should be easy just 2 screws but that will be later lol
Hope all doing fine today. Prayers out for thouse who need them
Pat if I could get the time off I'd come up and bush hog or something to help you out just to get back into doing some farm work. But there not letting any new leave be aproved and try to talk those already aproved out of it if they can were so short right now.
Afternoon all, the whole day here has been all about Michael Jackson's funeral. Wall to wall coverage on TV. My oldest son was involved in a traffic accident this morning on the way to work thanks to the Jackson mess closing freeways and causing rubber necking and inattention by drivers near Forest Lawn Cemetery. My son was side swiped by a guy who also damaged two other cars so badly they had to be towed. The guy had no license, no insurance and did not speak English. My son has a new car but has $1000 deductible on the uninsured motorist part so he will have to eat it.. The California Highway Patrol told my son that they would be giving a citation to the uninsured motorist. A lot of good that's going to do. The guy will probably not pay that either and head back to whatever country he came from before they collect the ticket price. I told my son to send the bill to the Jackson estate. They caused this mess to start with. They decided to have their funeral procession at the height of the rush hour on the 101 freeway between the Jackson home in Encino and Forest Lawn in Glendale. Great planning! Sorry for the rant.

LawsonFarmsRR Buckeye Riveter ChiefEagles Did anyone get invited to Jon's open house? After all we have done for Jon. Bet only Yanks were invited. I know he did not offer grits and sweet ice tea. I was invited and it was a great open house. T-bone steaks with fresh Iowa sweet corn was served outside under a big shade tree on a table that had to be 50' long. He let me run his trains and just before I left for Ohio, he handed me one of his highly detailed and expensive locomotives and said, "Here, I want you to have this." (Obviously, the Chief could learn some lessons in hospitality from Jon.) My goodness Buckeye, you have way out done Pinocchio! You will need a wheelbarrow to keep your nose off the ground!

(fingers crossed behind back here) I find it that I would believe what ever he says and that if he said that jon gave him an engine I believe him (fingers uncrossed now and brought back out front for all to see)
Evening all off my soap box now (buckeye did that sound good enough?) hows all doing had today off and it was just one of those days that all seem just not going straight. But all seem fine now as I'm home
Looks like another warm humid day here for the Ol' Pueblo. We are getting some buildup over the mountains already so we may see some rain today. Nothing much on the medical schedule except continue w/ my "fuel-injected diet" (sans carbs). I do have to look into that class or Kristin will force me to eat that stack of pancakes.
RRCharlie - cool link. I remember seeing a lot of layouts in the 70's when we were in Europe. Holland had some fantastic outdoor layouts using LGB stuff I think. None of the other vehicles (car, ships, planes, etc.) moved though, so that was pretty neat. The Germans do like their trains. The only HO stuff I kept was the few pieces of Fleischman stuff I collected. The RailBus pair is my favorite. Wonder if this has ever been made in O?
Pat - good to hear you are back up to speed. Too bad you are on the other side of the country. I'm not much of a farmer, but I'd be happy to tinker on anything that need's fixing.
Jeff - Congrats on the granddaughter!
May wander over to the hobby store later. Of the few things he had a few months back was a couple of new switches that were going cheap. Could definitely use another left anyway. The box of misc used track I found on the FleaBay was all rights (7) except one. Was thinking about trying out some of my layout ideas on the floor. I'll need to solder up some of the wire to the switch operators. Gonna have to get somebody over here to move the Hammerland off the workbench. It's a bit over the 50 lb limit. What we tube guys refer to as a "boatanchor" (Fife - lemme know if you need a spare).
ChiefEaglesLawsonFarmsRR I am back to 99%, so this week I will be bush hoging, spraying and moving cows. I am now two week behind, but that is the way it goes. Pat Guess I will have to pack up a big bag of "matters" and travel north. Use my farm boy skills and help my buddy catch up on his chores. Bush hogging and cows use to be some of my chores as well as tobacco, cotton, peanuts and corn. Now to go back to the house and take Burg to the vet for his annual checkup. Later

You and your "matters" are always welcome. Good help is hard to find. And our "matters" are still green. Might even find time to run a train or two.
