NO!!!!!! Don't delete the account, because she was posting in your account. Well, I have my doubt this is for real:

A) Why would she have interest to come and post?

B) Why did she use your account?

C) What are the chances she finds this thread and decides to post?

D) You make a big deal out of it, and you don't post for a long time.

Anyways, that's what I'm thinking. I've heard all too much of people creating two accounts on forums and chat groups, have an argument with themselves to attract a lot of attention.

But maybe I'm all wrong, hey it's only opinion! Whistling [:-^]

 You're right, don't delete the account, I read the post before looking at the poster (I assumed it was her account Sweety20001)

 A) She just wants to use the forum as a personal chatroom (she was looking for Elliots Trackside Diner)

B) She used my account because I forgot to log out. She had her own account, but mom told her she had no business coming on here, as she has no interest in the hobby.

C) She went to 'My Forums' and found one of the top on the list, this one.

D) As of late, she has also gone and created accounts for other stuff I have, such as e-mail(unbeknownst to my parents), and Travian. Why? AND I QUOTE "Zwinky and is getting boring; Do you want me to go back to Webkinz or something?" Also, check "Layouts and Layout building, I recently did a thread titled Layout Plan-- Critique Welcome, and have posted in the diner, and exchanging private messages with some people.

Any forceful response was directed to her, not you.

I was thinking about that Friday night too! They could ahve the nick name, the Sprits.

Wo, it has been DEAD here. Ok who killed it?

I haven't been here lately because I took a trip up to the Iron Range! That was fun as heck. I got some nice al Maroon Missabe Consists, and I got to see some classic 645s in action. SD40-2s, and tunnel motors.

3 tunnel motors.

Empty T-Bird.

Loaded T-Bird.

Quote Sawyer: 

BTW, green and yellow is the way to go. ;]

 

I was thinking of changing it to blue and yellow, or red and yellow, but the green looks sweet.

This might be the first IMW loco I'll paint.

I have a few geeps laying around so....we might see one in the near future.

BTW: Something seems to eb wrong with the quote blocks. It always says there non matching when I didn't do anything with them.

I can wire in Ditch lights to the WRS's contemplated SD45 for an additional sum of money...

Alright, second one it is. I might go out and but an Atlas caboose and see how it turns out.

Tyler. One day I'll have to drill holes in all of my locos for ditch lights.

Also, if you're interested, this is the Dispatcher sheet I'll be using for my new layout. It seems to work well in testing. When ever a train enters a new block it must get a new Warrant. Trains on my layout that won't need warrants are the one or two SP run though ore trains, and the coal train. Other wise the 2-3 Local freights, transfer, though freight, and the 2 WI&N transfers need warrants. Depending on space I may have siding before/after each block and signals to make it easier. But it's most likely It'll be simple asking for warrants and no meets if I get the minimum space.

BTW: In the "Expired" box, that means that that partictular train has got a new warrant.

Yep Sawyer. My freelanced Mountain RR, the Montana Western, which was basically my own version of the MRL. Two Rivers Manitowoc and Western was basically some Lines that CN might not want. IMW is basically the DME and ICE. IMW's Subsidiary is basically all the WSOR trackage and some trackage that WC had abandoned.

What Caboose Scheme do you guys like better? I like the Second one personally. The First one seems to have too much yellow.

Test one.

Test two.
