Hey laz and all I stumbled across what I believe is a private rail road between lancaster and reading acually bet it only has a few miles of track but did see it running the other day no cars behind it but think he must do some local switching in the area its acually out side of Denver, PA. heres some pics as I went back next day and took some pics.
RT, That is interesting, never heard of it and it's just down the road. What is the lettering on the engines? PRL? Exactly where near Denver?

RT way to COOL, just about an hour away from me and only a stones throw from JELECTRIC. Maybe a field trip?

Greg, thank you for the kind offer and the link. I've downloaded the form and am considering joining. If I do, I'll take up your offer of your signature on the application.
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
Just got home from York. What a trip !!! Will post more tomorrow, do apologize for not being more attentive at the group picture, I was walking around in a daze form all the trains.
Thanks to all of you for the great hospitality! Especially, John F, Roy, and George.
Hope things are working out for you Doug(dagrump) those can be really tough times.

Good morning from Gettysburg. Not much to report from here. Beautiful weather the last few days. Supposed to get some rain here over the next few days.
Been crazy busy at work. Last night I did not get home until after 8:00, late nights tonight and Thursday with rescheduled make-up activities that were snowed out in February and March.
Take care,
Mitch

Brent,
You are finally off the hook! I got your tender to work last night. It screams like a banshee now. Sometimes it won't stop unless power is cut off. I'll figure it all out. Only 2 tenders left in the infirmary!
Lisa,
If you're going to lob them in underhand, I'm going to swing for the fences. All in good fun.

Morning all,
Had a tough night, one of our dogs is having lots of problems. I have to take her back to the vet...afraid she might have to be put down Hopefully it is something that can be treated. She may have been bit by a black widow or snake.
I was had on that hudson deal. I was suspicious of the whole deal, but for the money, I figured I would see where it went. I do have enough information on the guy that I hope Law enforcement will follow up on. If not, I have some contact information that perhaps I can witness to him...plant a seed and let God convict him. I will post a thread on this so others won't be taken.
Busy day, got a case this morning and then to the vet and finally, take the kids to get pictures taken. I really hope things go well with the vet. anyway, not much in the train front. Take care,
Dennis

Dennis,
I missed this. What happened with your Hudson?
You do know that Roy is from Jersey, right? He might be able to have the guy "taken care of"...
Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a cloudy 53 degrees. Going up to 63 today, with rain in the forecast. Looks like a couple of days of it. Yuk.
Dennis...Good luck with your dog. We are still feeling the loss of ours. Will be, for a long time to come.
Today, I am driving up to Cambridge for the unpopular grocery shopping. Gas prices are still very high. Latest at $ 2.78 a gallon. Somebody is getting rich over this.
Later today, I think I will spend some time running trains. Have not spent too much time there lately. I need to get back into the fun.
Well, off to the Dining Car. Time for breakfast.
Y'all have a great Wednesday.
Chuck
Good morning all,
It is mild and rainy in SE Indiana with temps in the 60s. The person working on the garage finally finished it yesterday, and it looks nice. This has to be short today. Maybe I can post tonight. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana

Jim, thanks for the thought. Actually, this guy is in Milano, Italy. I have an address and multiple contacts. First I am going through law enforcement, then, I have some other methods. (did you know we have military very close to where this guy lives?) Western Union has a photo of this guy picking up the money. With apologies to our Italian friends here, have you ever heard of a ginny neck tie?

Nice again at 49 to get to 67.
Played trains last nite for a while then taped the shield, and deadliest catch.
Got to plant lettuce, peas and khorobis tonite.
Rock on,

Welcome Sir James Visit with us here on the "Pot". Can jabber all you want as long as you don't cuss or get too evil. OH NO, another Yankee.
Morning from warm and pretty NC with A/C on [ran some last night to cool this house down]. Grass to mow and garden to plant. Pack for Charlotte [short dive]. Tempted to drive farther west and find Lisa and then go down 77.
Watching NS video of SC and western NC to Chatlotte. OH NO, a local with two highnosed SD's pulling only two tank cars [bet I get some flack from the CSX crowd]. This was shot mostly last fall. Lots of UP engines [especially pulling intermodle from Atlanta north to PA] and some all UP. I have even seen a BN still in green. Quite a few BNSF and even one SF [what I call the Chief paint]. One outstanding thing is NO CSX engines.
Got to get moving.

Chief - Not west but North - I'm 20 mi. north of Dewey T., 20 mi. south of Martinsville Speedway.
Speaking of Dewey.....Where are you????

Early afternoon all,
Wet here in Southern Ohio. Grass is getting out of hand. I'm on dayshift and don't get home till 8 p.m. and too late to cut. Hopefully get to it when I'm off friday.
Dennis, hope your dog pulls through. They are pretty tough when it comes to poison bites. The vet should guide you through it. Keep us posted. I pray for dogs too
Can't imagine what it would be like topack up everything and move. Fill an 18 wheeler no problem, and a dump truck with junk to throw away.
The loader (770) and car (734) came yesterday. I've not tested they but they looks nice. Pics up coming
God bless
Hello and welcome to you Sir James. The Coffee Pot is where we come to catch up with each other and just check in. We do have a bit of jabbing, but it is all in good fun. We try to keep anything not directly train related here and then post train items as seperate threads. At the top of the list, is a thread for some "how To" threads that have been discussed to exhaustion. I mention this as should you have any questions about trains, check there first and then do a search before posting a question. Chances are, it has been answered and you would not have to wait for a reply. Otherwise, most here are laid back and no back biting as on some other sites.
Welcome again and please tell us a bit about yourself. Also, be sure to check out "Sunday Photo Fun" thread that is posted every sunday for the latest in pictures. Please, by all means, post some yourself. They have instructions on the list to post photos.
