<p>Good Afternoon Folks!</p> <p>Out of the STALAG! Only 3 more days until the exam - time to stick my nose into a book? No. We wrote 6 tests to exercise, and I passed all of them. The worst grade I got was 95% [:-^]</p> <p>Just watched my favorite show on TV - Railroad Romance. They had a very nice feature on a bloke named O. Winston Link, who documented the last days of steam on the N&W. The feature included some spectacular footage and pictures of N&W´s J´s and Y´s. I remember seeing some of these pictures in TRAINS, including the one of a drive-in cinema with a freight train passing in the back.There is a O Winston Link museum in Roanoke, VA., which seems to be worth a visit. Next month´s location?</p> <p>I have been offered this loco:</p> <p><img src="http://www.kato-unitrack.co.uk/images/kato_locos/2007-1.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></p> <p>It´s a Kato C 57 Pacific with a funny cinder trap on the smoke stack. I have no real use for it on my electric line, but´s a nice little loco and a real bargain for $ 30. Need to talk to Petra to free up the cash from the household money [:-^]</p> <p>The weekend will not so much of a MRRing activity. I am running out of material (and cash), but I will make some plans for the next module. It will have a depot as the main "attraction" - to house my EMU (and maybe another one in the future).</p> <p>Galaxy - my [angel] for you folks in the Susquehanna flood area!</p> <p>Have a good one!</p>
