Morning all'
Cold snowy and slick out.
Reggie, Beautiful little girl, you got a keeper!
Buckeye, hang in there, like they say, this too will pass.
Roger, there was a guy on ebay that sold bulbs and I've gotten several from him as you are describing. I'll search and see if I can find his name ect. for you. They work well and are cooler but not as expensive as leds.
Started documentating the 752 Seaboard Coaler redo. Just looking and figuring disassembly, wiring diagrams pictures and the like, should not be too bad.
Off till next Thursday! This is the good part of shiftwork. Got to run, errands and homework to finish before class Saturday
Later

Told you to stay out of the SOUTH!!!!
Morning all. Been watching a John Wayne western on Westerns Channel. One of his early ones with the Quaker girl. Will there ever be another Duke? Doubt it. Cloudy and cool but NO snow. Let it snow on Ohio, let it snow. Trains for a while and then later go to retirement bash for buddy. New England guy and the Brownies. Well, he looks real bad in that dress. Something about those knobbie knees. Have a good one.

Good morning guys & gals,
In spite of the forcast it is pretty nice here. Temps in low 30s, Sun in and out & nothing coming down at the moment.
Planning to start Geranium seeds in the greenhouse today. Then work on a couple of layout projects.
Still no posts from Mitch?
John,
How was the museum? What do they have you doing there?

It's more of a joke. Because I can't keep up with the news and happenings I posted earlier that usually because I'm so lost as to what's going on in the thread I usually just post..."Have a nice day" anymore.
Cheer up, Marty. It's Groundhog Day!
Another busy mawnin' heah. I just took a break for lunch. I like David's idea of an erotica column in CTT. A scantilly clad hottie with toy trains in each issue would really boost circulation!
I love scantilly clad hotties . . .

Marty - I know how you feel - with the new forum software where you cannot see all the posts from the present page (like you could before) makes it tedious to chat and acknowledge what the other folks are doing. Maybe after it settles a bit and I am happy about the improvements made so far - maybe they could attack the quick reply with current page viewing issue.
Cold here. Snowed a little last night but it was gone by 10 am. 40's today - cloudy.
Kids are home for teacher work day. DAughter is working as a stage hand in the HS spring musical so she has to go in today at 3:30 anyway. She got to sleep late but is now lying in bed talking on the cellphone to her boy-friend .
Buckeye - hope you feel better soon.
Dennis - is the modern-era book you bought different than what is posted on Lionel's web site?
Regards, Roy

Roy,I don't have kids, but my father used to threaten to have a phone implanted in my sister's head, that way all she had to do was 'jack-in' when she got home! LOL!With today's advent of wireless technology that threat by my father could actually happen! Just what women need... a way to talk without having a device held to their head!Maybe you could get one of those cellphone disabling devices:http://www.globalgadgetuk.com/Personal.htmBut you would have to record her facial expressions as every time her cell does dead!

Brent,
I get all kinds of facial looks from my daughter without doing anything special. I get really good looks from my 13 year old son by just existing in his space
Your layout plan looks good.
Lionroar88 I sent you pics in 2 different e-mails.
Afternoon all cloudy and rain here and there about mid to upper 30's
Cya all later time to run
Life's hard, even harder if your stupid John Wayne

Underworld, Marmite is a bi-product of the brewing industry. People usually have a strong reaction to their first taste. I like it on toast , but my cousin from California hates the stuff it was intresting watching her face when she tried it while visiting us.

However if it came down to Marmite or Waffles, Waffles win hands down.

Roy, I am not sure. I have the book ordered, so it will take a few days to make the trip south. I believe it is mostly the information on the Lionel site, only a bit more detailed and with some added information. That is one reason I would not spring for the $250 to get it. I will let you know when I get it.
I currently have both kids home with me and my bride is on her way home. She tells me I am addicted to trains...................Is that a problem
If anyone comes across one of those NYC mack trucks, the flatbed with the load, I am looking for one. Please give me a shout, better by email as I may miss it in the long threads here.
Thanks,}

Good Evening ......
It snowed about 4 inches today. Looks beautiful, if you don't have to drive in it.
Got some work done on the layout. Coming along, slow but sure.
Good Night, All.

What is wrong with apple pie for breakfast ?????
Now if you had put a couple of scoops of vanilla ice cream on top, then maybe it wouldn't be considered OK. Now I'm not saying it wouldn't be good, just not good for you. To each his own, one of my personal fav's was a place that had served a really decadent choc cake with a huge scoop of french vanilla ice cream and a generous helping of hot fudge sauce all over it. OINK, OINK !!!!!
Had a great run at the museum today, as laz says "no pile-ups". Small turnout today.

DOUG, GREAT NO PILE UPS.
Nothing wrong with apple pie for breakfast. Heck theres nothing wrong with cold pitza for breakfast either.
HEY GIZ,
Ran trains tonite for 2+ hrs and did have a minor pile up. Was running track 4 in conventional and thought I was in command with another engine, throttled up and BAM right into the switch tower. No injuries or smashed engines or property loss just ego, DUH, must have had a DUMB DUMB PILL?
Got about a inch and a half o snow this after.
Have agood one.
Dennis - I would be very interested if the book is more descriptive than the web site info.
Thanks!
Roy,
I will try to give as much of a detailed description of the book when I get it. I understand that it is more of the diagrams and a bit less of the how to's as in the 45-69 manual, but I will have to see.
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Supposed to hit the mid 60's again. Sure would be bad to live up north
