I don't travel much lately, Never been to london ohio what is the name of that hobby shop? I am thinking about going to the Spring S spree in Hillard. The club that I sometimes belong to is hosting the all S scale and S gauge show. It is not cheap to register but everybody who makes S and sells s related product will be there and I think there will be at least 3 clubs with layouts there. My club COSG has a nice portable"modular" but fixed in size layout. The club from springfield(I think thats where they are from) has a truely modular layout and is very impressive.
Where is Rodgers cornner anyway? Is it anywhere near Portsmouth? A childhood friend and his family moved to Portsmouth many years ago.
Reggie - congrats on the job! Sounds like a class operation if they are paying for school and all! God bless. I've got a Bud Light in the fridge if you pass through St. Louis. Same goes for any of you guys. My layout is pretty small and sparse, but we're learning as we go. There is a cool Museum of Transportation near here you guys might like, plus lots of trains downtown behind where I work etc.
Went to the zoo today on a field trip with my daughter. We barely had time to see any animals, though. We did get to see the little train they run through the zoo - it's a 4-2-4 and made to look like sort of a 10 Wheeler or General. Maybe when I retire in a million years, I can get a job there as a conductor?
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.

Buckeye, did you ever get the OSU billboard and water tank? Have not been to M&S trains for awhile.
I only purchased the OSU National Champions billboard with the 20?? upgrade. I think Wes purchased the water tower. Sometime you need to head to Roger's Corners and run the trains. Wait until we have better weather so you can see the ones outside.
Have you ever been to the store near London, Ohio?
CONGA REGGIE, did you say beer? Me and my BEAR will be there? WHERE?
CSX, Kentucky did a Elk transfere/reintroduction program several years ago. It has been a success to a large degree. Tennessee also was starting it when the whole CWD thing started and both states have stopped for the time being. I don't believe the Carolinas have even started the program. As to diabetes, as Lisa stated, see a specialist. An endocrinologist is the one to see. It is important to get it under control....lots of issues that can be avoided with good care. You are on the young side, so you don't want to let it damage your systems this early.
Good Luck,
Dennis

Reggie,
Way to go with the Job driving truck. I also have a job although it is a temp. part time job.
It will look good on my Resume and may even lead to more work if they have the need for it. The Best part is I only work 3 days a week for 4 hours.
Chief do you have Elk in your area? In eastern Kentucky where mom is from they are being over run with deer and elk.
Hi all,
Had a job in London today (near Hampton Court), left at 6am took us 4hrs to travel the 110 miles there! M25 nightmare installed a secton of steam pipe and a control valve, job done in under a hour. Then drive home had late breakfast at the Ace Cafe on the North circular. If you ever get the chance to check out the Ace I reccomend it. Its a biker/classic car hang out par excellence where the "Ton-Up" boys used to hang out in the 50's and 60's.
Bought a 100th anniversary Lionel wall clock from ebay. It arrived today, will be perfect for the new Gamesroom (Once its built of course). Charlie (my son) and the FIL love it but my Wife thinks I have lost the plot when she heard the chimes...
John B, I always remember a neighbour of my American Granfather complaning about the damage moles were doing to his lawn. Grandad was trying hard to keep a straight face, when the chap finished his winge, Grandad replied "Just be thankful its not Gators!" (He lived in Florida for a time and they used to lay on his lawn!)
Hope you all had a good day
Nick
Reggie, congratulations!!!!!!!!! I didn't even get to praying more than once for your situation. I will keep you and your family in my prayers while you get started in your new job.
88, have you thought of using a transfere table? May be the right fix for your space. In the "Animations" book the author uses a transfere table he made with the engine holding tracks hidden under a level with a city scene.
Tomorrow, Wed. the 28th, on the History channel, Modern Marvels is on Freight Trains. I believe it is 9:30 Eastern. If the kids allow me, I will be watching.
Have a great day everyone.

Congrats!!!!Brent
thanks for the invite. i have alot of spare wood from the houses that i collected it from for my layout. if i come that way i will let you know. what you need to tellme is how much you are looking for, and the sizes you need. how about i just bring some trains to run like my acella which has never been run and a 12 pack of corona for me and whatever brand 12 pack you drink. then we just sit back and relax and enjoy the wonderful hobby that we both so love. let me know what you think about that
Fife,I have the following accessories:Oil FieldOperating Oil DerrickOperating Oil PumpDiesel re-fueling stationBarrel LoaderGantry CraneMilk CarCoral Car (cows)GE Generator Car with Search LightRoad CrewWater Tank (steamer)Water Tank (blinking light on top)Want to get:Coal LoaderCoal Dump CarsFisherman on peir - K-LineConstruction Dump Truck- K-LineConstruction Front-end loader - K-Line by LionelHobo Campfire (building my own with Artista figures)Thinking about:Log LoaderSawmillLog dump carsI'm getting the MTH Passenger Station with platforms, and I have 4 Lionel Passenger Platforms. Was going to put the station inside the lower right loop and the platforms between the inner loop and the leg coming in from the left. A town would fill the void inside the inner loop, with a couple removable panels to get to the rear track.The Gantry Crane I was going to put in the yard in the closest siding. Or put the GC on the 4th siding, and the barrell loader on the 1st.The placement of the accessories is the hard part... The scenery can be modeled around them...I removed the inner-most loop on the lower right loop, this allowed me to extend both inner loops a bit...really need the RR-Track software so I can place the accessories to see if I have enough spacing between the tracks and other scenery...
