Good Afternoon,Zoe, a coffee, black and hot, in my LKAB mug, please. I take a seat at the RC and chat with: Keith - the loco looks like a Southern Pacific GS-4 to me, painted in war time livery, i.e. all black instead of that colorful "Daylight" scheme. I am not sure whether AT & SF ever owned any of those, somehow I have my doubts about the correctness of the lettering.  Still a good looking loco, though.I am still not sure whether building a layout in a cold, unheated and therefore a little damp attic is a good idea. The place has no insulation at all and, in fact, no electricity other than a single light bulb. Maybe I should change the scale and go into N scale - reviving my ARR Port of Whittier plan posted earlier. I built my last N scale layout over 30 years ago, when it was still plagued with frequently stalling engines, oversized rails and those toylike Rapido couplers.Some of you guys are modeling in N scale - could that be a viable option for me? Jeffrey and Ray - I talked to Petra about your dietary issues. She agrees that you should stay away from any of those commercially propagated diets. A good diet is one that is based on your individual needs and your likes/dislikes. What you should avoid is "red meat", i.e. pork and beef. Chicken, turkey and fish are "good" meats. Try to avoid potatoes, as they are high in starch and carbohydrates. Eat frequently, 5 to 6 times a day, small portions only and avoid alcoholic beverages. A glass of wine now and then is much better than a glass of beer. The biggest issue on any diet is that you should take it serious, but not dogmatic. Don´t get a bad feeling about eating things that you should not eat, try to compensate the next day.  These are general remarks only, without knowing you in person it is quite difficult to come up with the right dietary recommendations.My I ask a question to you two guys? The pictures you posted here have shown such a high degree of MRR craftsmanship. Would it be asking too much, if you prepare a little article of your layouts for us chowhounds here in the Diner, if not for Model Railroader?Tomorrow, a TV guy will come and install the new antenna, so we will have those 30 + channels available. Our viewing habits actually include only 4 - 5 channels - those, that do not have those hated breaks for useless commercials. My friend will also join me in completing the kitchen. Have a good one!
