Finally a breakthrough.
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, September 13, 2005 12:02 AM
To all of you who have tracked my many ramblings on this site you probably know that I have been eager to move into my own place during the course of this past summer. However plans have gone awry and that has not yet occured. However my youngest brother finally got himself thrown out of the house (Email me if you wish for the details) And I have been granted 26 square feet of right of way. This allows me to set my East Michielsen Switching District back up and get trains running. Once I have trains running I will begin pressuring for work on Phase 2.

You may want to hold off until everyone's skin has cooled. Sometimes these 'thrown out of the house' schemes are reversed before you know it.

Just a suggestion.

Crandell,

Good point. But I'm sure James can find a spot under the benchwork for his brother to sack out. It's priorities!!

If you ain't having fun, you're not doing it right and if you are having fun, don't let anyone tell you you're doing it wrong.

The place under the benchwork is usually the staging area. Anyone fro "dual-use" layouts?

I do my chores, am polite, and don't threaten to hit my mother if what she asks me to do is contrary to what I wi***o do. Also during this whole dry spell I have been diplomatic, and the few heated discussions we had on the topic did not degenerate into screaming matches.

Now if only Union Pacific can be negotiated wtih.
