bread pudding - Yep - don't care for it too muchice pudding - Yep - don't care for it too muchhot dogs - YES - Like the 1/4lb ones at the ballparkpickles Yep - never met a pickle I don't like! :)hamburgers - YEScountry fried steak Yes - and Chicken Fried Chicken as well! :)elephant ears Yes - Jim they are large flat fried dough, similiar, but different than Funnel Cakecorn on the cob - YEStomatoes - YEScorn dogs - OH MAN YES! The ones at Kennywood Park in Pittsburgh, at the stand across from The Jack Rabbit are the bestJim, have you ever had: Mac & Cheese, Funnel Cake, Philly Cheese Steak, MD Crab Cakes, hot dog hash, scrapple?I'm getting hungry!!!!!
Morning all, a special one goes out to Dr. John and his bride. Look forward to hearing good news.
Chief, Nanna Pudding is about my favorite. If I can just keep the kids from eating the bannanas, till they are just right, Kim makes some mighty fine stuff. As for Jim not having had it, he would probably put maple syrup on it anyway. And Laz, you are right, corn dogs are another staple down these parts....YUM! I try to hold off on too many, that is what keeps me working. All the locals eat them and come for bypass.
As to Nifong, he probably never had a train set.....Trains make for better people. Something wrong about a guy who never played with trains!
The above does come with some exceptions.....some notorious folks have had trains, but I think they all took a bullet or pill.
I took delivery of 4 more boxcars last night. A "Cracker Jack", SP 6464, Santa Fe 6464, and a NYC 6464. I have them sitting on the layout as not another inch in the kids closet. I think I am done for a little bit. At least I have to get more trains running before the Chief calls me bad things.

Just us REBS getting our cannon tested.
Morning. Notice Jim A brags a lot about "things" he is missing.
Cloudy but no rain. Rain please. Slept late. Think I will do some trains until I meet with Wake Co Schools. I have them in a "tivey". Stopping them from loading and unloading buses on the main throughfares in Roseyville. "Saftey of the kids."
Later.

Get a real look at the Don Baker Roseyville Station. One in Jim's back yard.
Good morning from Raleigh.
For those who are interested, the ethics trial of sociopathic Durham County DA Mike Nifong (Duke lacrosse case) continues in the Court of Appeals building just up the street. I pass it on the way to work, and the news folks were swarming like ants around Colin Finnerty, one of the three wrongly accused players who will apparently testify today.
Morning all!
Man the Pot is busy today! A beautiful morning here. Cool breeze and headed to 90 today. Rain in the forecast through the weekend. Chief - we are getting all your rain here. I picked the perfect year to replace the lawn.
Corn dogs yum - Texas State Fair and Fletchers Corny Dogs - can't be beat!
Down here - if it can be eaten - we fry it! Hmmm - why is the average life expectancy 58???
A couple of the train club members are going to do a small display for a kid's day event that occurs Saturday at the Age of Steam Museum here. Good museum, but cramped and all outdoors. We have Big Boy, GG1, UP Centennial, etc. The museum has a new property across the street (it is currently on the Texas State Far grounds) and hope to build a nice facility like Sacramento or PA with most of the equipment indoors. They are even talking about a roller platform for the Big Boy so the drivers can be moving (Johnny - GET OUT of THERE! - not sure they considered this aspect). We will take a small layout and have a display table with a Lionel Big Boy on a roller base.
Don - sorry about the ditch lights - I'm with you - who cares whether UP has them or not - they should have them!
I hope all goes well for Dr. John's wife. Prayers continue for her and all the others needing them.
John B - come live in Texas and have some HOT tea. We make hot tea by sitting a pot in the sun for a little while.
Mitch - congrats on a little extra time off for you! Enjoy it!
Jim A - A PC at home? You'll spend all your time trying to make it work and then you will go to the library to post on CTT . And - thanks for not going any further with that maple syrup comment .
Brent - good luck on the move. Don't start playing with the trains when you unload them or you will not "git 'er done!"
Chuck - looking forward to the bridge pics. It sounds like it will be nice. I like the 100 Year Bridge Co decals - they are sharp!
Mike C. - Glad to hear all went well with the birth of your granddaughter.
Fife - why is the newly completed CONNELLSVILLE SUB about to be Blue Flagged? You better get our blue flag expert John onto the task!
Buckeye - it has been a tough year for those with the KNACK. We lost the man who invented the remote control earlier this year and now Mr. Wizard.
LAZ - not to many "gimme's" or "mulligans" today.
Dennis - we share the "closets runneth over" with toy trains syndrome.
RTF - nothing like headlines from the front!
Zeke must have gone to sleep early last night?
Well, as you can tell, first morning in a loooong time where I do not have a bunch of conference calls.
Have a great day all!
Regards, Roy
Roy - my CONNELLSVILLE SUB has been my faithful 9 x 6 1/2 winter layout (many pictures posted) of the past 5 years. My newly constructed CUMBERLAND extension (7 x 6 1/2) has to tie into it, via a double track mainline thru the Cumberland Narrows (B&O) and a representation of the Western Maryland State line branch (single track).
Not being able to run trains, theoretically, should put the spurs to my tail.
I'll probably post some more progress pics Sunday...

Only about 4-5 years of work at the McClellan current pace....
I saw on the History Channel the other night that the world is defintely going to end on December 21, 2012. The Mayans predicted it, so it HAS to be true. I'm thinking about hosting a combination birthday/end of the world party that day. You are all invited. I hope you all can make it! I can see the TV teasers now - "world ends at 10, film at 11!"
Also, I have made a firm commitment to 'the wielder of the cast iron pan' that I will not start on the train room till I have finished her master bathroom, moved the basement bathroom, and completed the basement renovations.
Good gravy. That's quite a "to do" list. If my wife hit me with that one, I'd say, "Great. Why not add 'build the Great Pyramid of Khafre," "splice a rope from cheese,' and 'kill a man in Reno, just to watch him die' while you're at it."

NO WAY! Buckeye, if he was stupid enough to get a DUI on his own, I wouldn't help him with a problem. Besides, if he does it after drinking the Coors, you could get charged for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
On a sad note, Billy Graham's wife Ruth died today at 5pm. Regardless of your religeous affiliations, Mr. Graham has been good man who has helped many, many peole over the years and helped by a good wife.
Did some cleaning up in the train room tonight. Threw out a bunch of outer shipping cartons for Lionel track, accessories and train sets. Took up a good bit of space and as my bride would know all too well, I need the space!
Hope everyone has a good night.

Hope your not on city water or your going to have one heck of a water bill and if your on well you still may bump the electric bill a bit as the pump running all night and day.
not a bad deal though. My father figured out it was cheaper to have a tank truck bring the water in from a local quarrey when we got ours when i was a kid.

They have no news from the big 2 for this month as of now anyway. Guess I'll just have to play with my old trains. Not as hot today 81 now but the heat is coming back and no rain. We had one of those free gas deals this morning right near the GM tech center at morning rush hour, what a mess.(10 gals.). I'm going to roam a bit,everyone who has nice weather, enjoy.
Jim, Got an email from my LHS, my MTH, CNJ boxcab is in! Don't know when I will get there to pick it up. With my permission he is going to test run it for me.
Evening all. Cloudy but still no rain. The "Grahams" have dedicated their lives to telling everyone about the Lord. She will be missed and Billy is not in good health.
Guys, Buckey was not serious about gving the case of Coors.
Hey, where is Lisa? Got an email from her but haven't seen any posts.
Brent, John F is the Pro that can help you with that wiring or I am the Am that can. Really easy but be careful where you stick your fingers.
