<p>Good Morning!</p> <p>The weather beguessers told us it is going to be a nice day, but I have to see that yet. It´s gray and gloomy outside - just the right weather for a holiday! October 3rd was made into a national holiday, commemorating German unity. That´s something I could have done without.</p> <p>I checked Ebay for the availibilty of cheap used Z scale track and there seems to be no shortage of that. Those curved turnouts sell for about $ 18 instead of $ 58 MSRP. I think I´d be able to bring down the cost of the track to a level where I can handle it. I also looked at the Z scale locos. There seems to be a step-up improvement in detail and performance to what I know from years back. The locos now have a 5-pole , skew-wound motor, and the steam locos of recent release have a complete set of Walschaert-type valve gear. Still not decided, though!</p> <p>Garry - yes, I am near-sighted. I don´t need magnifying glasses, I just have to take my spectacles off and hold whatever I want to see "bigger" close to my nose ... [swg]</p> <p>Ken - I haven´t had a good night´s sleep for years. I feel tired and wasted during the day, but I try to ignore it, as fighting it made it worse. I have come to terms with that situation. Does YOH know she´s putting her life at stake when eating that junk? Ken, my friend, there must be a reason behind her eating that stuff all the time, which may require some sort of counselling.</p> <p>No HD list today, so plenty of time to indulge in my favorite hobby - dreaming of layouts which I never will be able to build.</p> <p>Make it a happy day!</p>
