Thanks Chuck....Yes, we've had our share...actually more than our share. We're spoiled in Denver. The misconception here is it's always cold and always snow on the ground. That just isn't true....well until the Winter of 2006-07.
Paul, I wish my commute was just downstairs with coffee in hand. Actually I only live about 5 minutes (normal drive) from the office. However, this morning due to icy streets that took about 8-10 minutes.

That's my commute, only one day a week I walk 10 second from the house to the church, and 2 days I have to drive 45 minutes to Asbury Seminary.
Laz,
Try calling TAS. It might be a faulty board that can be replaced with another, like EOB or something similar.

Thanks Jim.
Good morning from a wet and wild Crystal Lake where it thundered all night and was sleeting horizontally this morning. Now it's supposed to warm up just for the day. Found I didn't have enough wire to work on the layout last night.
Lisa, my wife is a pediatric nurse - she worked at Children's Memorial in Chicago, and various large practices over the years - there's still quite the nursing shortage here - but who would want to come to Chicago over North Carolina -- we'll keep you in our prayers to find a new better job.
Jerry! Bring a new pot of joe over to the table.
I wonder who'll be the new editor at CTT.

I heard some guy named Eagles is interviewing for this week.
Laz, post a thread about your Berk here and on OGR. Chances are good that someone will have a better solution than mine (cheaper, too).
Just sent TAS a email. I think if I get a upgraded board with Railsounds 4.0 it will have the chuff? But now the light situation?

Laz, The Railsounds don't appear to be the problem. I think you may need an EOB board to control the light and sounds. It might be more in line with what you need. But you could certainly get both and have a whole new system without any bugs.
Round 2
We are being hammered and it's ugly. Heavy wet snow with fierce winds, most of the interstates are closed and it's supposed to last until tomorrow. The worst part is that there are still over 50,000 folks without electricity and there are over 2300 out of state workers trying their hardest to get folks hooked up again. It's basically dividing the state in half with the western half just being brought to it's knees. Thankfully we have not lost our electricty at all this last week but the system is fragile at best.
Good to be home and warm.

So many roads, so little time.
Afternoon all!
Welcome, JTaylor801
Lisa, I hope your job search is successful. I know they're crying for good nurses up here in Toronto.
It just started snowing here. No doubt it'll be another of their weekly storms of the century.
Bought a few pieces of Atlas rolling stock at the LHS last weekend and noticed they now have Industrial Rail products stocked Also got an Atlas switch tower which I'm in the process of painting and weathering. Played a bit with my Lionel E6 Atlantic trying to fix the chuff unit cherry switch. More on that in another post.
In the time it took to write this the snow has turned into a blizzard. Stop eating so many cows!

Jerry, Welcome to the coffee Pot.
Did a little more work on the Docksider, now can run it and did test on operation, horn & smoke control. All works so far. Had to Dremel off some mounting studs for the old light board in the boiler shell and wire the new lighting setup.
Here is what it looks like so far.
The tie wrap sticking up in the air is there to hold up the antenna temporarily for testing.
More later, got to get the oven started, this is my night to do dinner.

Have you met Dr. John, the resident pastor for the forum? He is overworked trying to take care of all of us because some of us are inventing sins he has never considered, so he might sign you on as an assistant. Maybe they will let you be an intern for the forum. I believe the pay is really good. BTW, I had to take Greek in school. They called it Thermodynamics.

Good Morning all,
This is my first post in the Coffee Pot thread. It's about 19 degrees in the Mile High City. We had about 3 inches of snow yesterday. I'm ready for Spring and a chance to get my golf clubs out and see how much work I need to do.
Welcome to the CTT Coffee Pot. I first saw the Mile High City in 1967. Love Caboose Hobbies on south Broadway (?). Have a good friend over at Telluride. It is a 3-hour flight for me to Denver and the plane just follows I-70 as we pass over Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City and then...........................nothing until we reach those white tents out in the middle of the field.

Good advice, Bruce. I'm heading outside right now to get some weeds and grass for supper so that I can do my part.
John, keep us posted on the Docksider TMCC install. Who's kit are you using?

In case I forgot to mention it for those who rarely venture to the MR portion of forum there is an alarming amount of model railroaders with diabetes posting on a thread over there. If you have or know someone who has diabetes you should read the thread also another good thread for Vetterns.

Doug wants his recommendation written in English, not Suthern. Furthermore, would a letter of recommendation look very good with sweet tea and grits stains on the paper?

You guys in Alabama, hit the dirt!!!!! We Buckeyes have had our share of big killer storms and getting out the way is very important. Sadly, we hear that a high school was struck in Enterprise, Al and there were several deaths. If you live in an area prone to severe weather I encourage you to invest in a weather warning radio. It can save your family.
