[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by egmurphy</i> <br /><br />Good Morning Coffee Clubbers, <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: Chris: I decided that whether I've ever seen trains from that era or not I wanted to model the postwar era again. So now I can go back to 40' and 50' boxcars painted mineral red, woodside waycars, F-units, Baldwin switchers, Geeps, SD's, and Alcos. Besides, what I realized I wanted a modern CB&Q to be like was what the road was like in the midcentury decades, anyways.[/quote] <br />There you go! Sounds like a good idea to me. Did you see the ‘map of the month’ back in November’s Trains? It’s a page and a half spread of a map showing growth of the Burlington System from 1850-1940. Sounds like something you’d like. <br /> <br />Catch you all later, <br /> <br />Ed <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I don't subscribe to <i>Trains</i>, (yet anyways) but whenever I go to the LHS this month I'll be sure to buy that issue. Sounds pretty interesting. <br /> <br />Also Ed, funny that you talk of the story, "The Cask of Amontillado," we had to read that in English not too long ago. <br /> <br /> <br />Noah: <br />You should go live with my relatives in Northern Minnesota, It probably will be snowing there before too long! An we all know how much you love snow....[;)] <br /> <br />And if we get the wet, sloppy snow here in Illinois within the next few days, you're going to be hunted by more than Fergie! [}:)][;)] <br /> <br />Christopher <br /> <br />BTW, Jim, not to start the slogan war again, but did you notice I replaced the KCS and Frisco heralds with FW&DC and Colorado and Southern ones?[:p]
