HEY!!! Wait a minu..........oh what the heck! Just do it girls! Party's on me!
The whole gang is truly relieved Jeffery, We were all keeping you in our prayers, but the worry level was extremely high. That was not a fun thing to deal with but fortunately you are a tough old bird. We are really pleased to have you back and to share your wit and wisdom.
der.. Excellent advise on that product, I have seen ads for it but have never run across it in the shops that I get to.
Thanks all for the congrats on our Football Team. The city has really gone nuts here today.There was 8000+ fans who turned up at the Stadium this afternoon to welcome them home from Toronto. Outside field and it was -31 degrees C. Now that is dedication and love. The Saskatchewan Roughriders RULE.
Well that's it gang, I am really wiped after this week and I'm looking for my pillow.
Night all.

inch53- Is that the yard you see as you drive on I-70? If not, just where is it? And what's the chance of stumbling upon an IC engine there at any given time? I have made 2 trips to Illinois to get pics of IC, and from the maps it looked like it would be nearly impossible to NOT gets pics.
Nearly.
Ohhhh welllll, it worked out, got to getapieceapie at the Blue Roof Cafe (or whatever they call it), the home of the mile high pie!
Amyjo told me to get my Schraeder's RR catalog out, circle what I wanted for C-mas and give it to her. The catalog, I mean. Gonna hit it as soon as I finish up here.
Been working between turkey-fests on getting a room addition weatherproofed, our nephew is coming in from Hawaii to spend C-mas with us, and I don't think he wants to rough it in an unheated, unfinished room, so we have been fighting the cold November rain and sealing it up as best we can. Heat the can-apply the weatherseal- re-heat the can. Having a good time doing it, so it's no biggie.
JefferyW- Cheated death again, eh? Good man. He just doesn't know who he's messin' with! Glad you sent 'im packing!
der- Good clinic on laying roads! You make it look easy. And good!
Looks like alot of layouts are moving along, and if everything goes to plan (now I plan for utter chaos and absolutely no time, so it should work out fine) early next year, after the nephew heads back to paradise, I'll at least be able to set up a small switching layout on a folding table. Kind of looking forward to it. Got more than enough stuff, just need the place to put it.
Stay dry, and warm too if you want to be greedy about it, and take good care!
Evening folks-like last nite, I'll have a Pepsi from the machine out...wait a minute, Garry's buying root beer floats? I'll have one of those-been years since I had one!
Well, looks like the diner's rockin' tonite-all because Jeff's back-WB Jeff! there were a lot of very concerned folks about you here. I know you're zzz-ing now but looks like the party's still going.
Lee (in Euclid) is right about those Staph infections making the rounds in this neck of the woods-been a lot of talk on the news lately here.
Dave-your tender looks fantastic! Although I'm an HO person (yeah, yeah I know) My other half is N, & she loved your layout & what you did with the space you had. (some inspiration for a future coffee table kinda/sorta layout for her here? we'll see as time goes on.)
Der-keep the layout progress pics coming-definite inspiration for me. (side note-Dawn (other half) was at work earlier & I had some classic bluegrass cranking as I was working on my projects in the basement-she came home early & laughed because I had my tunes cranking-I had to run to turn them down since she's not a bluegrass fan)
Bob K-as to the footboards/roofwalks-you're right on that-HA!
Hoople-I used to play trumpet/cornet in the marching band in high school years ago, but I can't even hold a tuning C now-if I started to play I'd empty this place in 5 seconds flat!
All-yeah I know it's late & I'm chatty, but on VACATION so the alarm clock isn't set tomorrow. Been rainy as all get out today (.44"). Dawn filled the bird feeders yesterday, & although they usually stay in it seems when it's raining, they didn't today-at 1 point I counted 5 cardinals (at 1 time!) a Red-Bellied Woodpecker, the very large Bluejay that's been here before, not to menton the usual sparrows, nuthatches, & chickadees. Made some decent progress on my painting/decaling/weathering, although I've noticed some small pieces/parts have turned up missing with a few things after the move here. I guess I was "all over the shop" (as my Aussie friends would say) when I was getting things together to move.
My Mom called asked me to do a few things for her tomorrow, but said not to call her too early. Looking at the clock, I think I can oblige her!
Nite All!
Good Morning All,
Getting ready to go to the airport to fly out to LA with the CFO. We'll see if the laptop co-operates this trip as I have a new wireless card to try. It is up to 50 already and the rain has stopped so hopefully there won't be too many delays.
Jeff - welcome back! Glad everything is working out for a complete recovery. We were right worried when you posted then went missing on us. Kept your seat warm here in the diner though.
Not much to report on the MRR front, mostly clean up prior to the trip.
Jerry - the privy is a single door model that came with the Grandtline grab bag. I'll put the other bits of the Model Power kits to use as I fit the houses to the display at the museum. If you need, we have a bunch of trucks and bits from the accumulations of N stuff. Let me know what you might need.
Wll, gotta run - just wanted to drop in and say hi on my way out. CUL, J.R.
Good Morning from Tipton IN !

Mornin,, an irish coffee Zoe, cold n icy here today under clear skies.
JEFF,,, it's good to hear from ya again and that your recovering.
PHILRUNT,,,, I think it's the old Pennsy [CSX] that you can see part of from 70, but I could be wrong, we don't get past Effingham that much on 70. The IC yard is just off of US-45, across from the mall and in behind Bob's Salvage on the N end, and most the power sets round there at the office. There's bout always some IC power setting round there waiting for a crew change or working the yard. The overpass we were on is at the S end. We've never been hassled over there, and I bout always check in the yard office n tell'em what I'm doing. The old Pennsy yard is a little harder to get to.
DAVE,, the tender looks great, can't wait to see the engine.
DER,, the layout just keeps looking betters.

well we did have an antivirus program but it was not one of the better ones. I think it was Mcfree. and so now my dad brought our comp to the pewter geek place to be fixed. I think it might be there a while.
Around here it would appear that the last of Indian Summer has run for the hills! It's pretty nippy in the mornings around here nowadays!Today: sunshine early, then partly cloudy, cool - high: near 45Tonight: partly cloudy, chilly - low: 28Right now it's a brisk 29 degrees. Looking for snow later in the week though........several times!Went to class last night and I was on fire! Hittin' on all 8 cylinders! I love it when I'm in tune with the discussion, but at the same time I try to hold back some because I don't want to just dominate the discussion, ya know? Sometimes I tend to be like a bull in a china shop, and thats not good. It's nice to be "on it" though!Well, I wasn't around a lot yesterday. The wife got her staples out in the morning, then I played catch-up at work, then it was off to school in the evening! Glad that day is over! That was a long one! Just got work today, so a welcome break......sort of.Whats up with you today?
Oh, BTW Dave V., the tender looks awesome!

Good Morning Zoe - I see there's still some of the confetti left on the floor from last night's party. Sorry I missed it! How about a root beer float since PC's (or is it Garry?) buying, please. Thanks!

, Jeff - Welcome back and glad to hear you're on the trail to recovering from that yucky stuff. Don't forget to continue taking whatever meds the Drs. may have given you to kick the rest of that bug out. I'm taking my antibiotic for my bug (though I don't think my Dr. gave me the heavy-duty stuff that yours did), too.
PC, I tried reworking the layout plan last night to resemble the changes you and Paul had mentioned. I'll post an image of it later today (after my opthalmologist appointment).
Last night at the MRR club, we got most of the bed in place for the staging yard (back wall of the layout room), using some of the former staging yards, so we have a lot of the tracks in place - just need to add the ladder turnouts and extend the far end of the yard. Gonna be one long yard - I think it's about 12 tracks, mostly about 15-20' long. That can be a lot of cars, even using modern/longer ones! Also, I got my order in (Walthers single track truss bridge, (2) Heritage Furniture background building kits, couple of CMW delivery van trucks (yellow & silver), and a couple of WS's newer kits (structures, and desert plants). The WS desert plants kit may be pretty usable, with some paintwork and modification. The structures kit is more like what one of your middle school or elementary school students would use for a class project - I could probably get as good of materials for less at local Hobby Lobby or art supply store (IMHO). Well, I learned anyway...
Cold here this a.m. and still not that warm - only supposed to reach the mid-30's at best today. Possibly more frost in the a.m. to scrape.
Need to get back to the 'w' thing for now, since I'm getting off at about 1 p.m. for lunch and then eye doctor's appointment. Going to enjoy the afternoon off. Tempted to take an ORF nap after the Dr's. visit is over.
Great to have you back Jeffrey! Laissez les bons temps rouler!
Blessings,
Jim in Cape Girardeau
Good afternoon All from the Grand Banks of Newfoundland!
Had a nice little post all set up yesterday for the CS but after 15 minutes of typing I hit the "post" button and it was gone, gone and lost forever! Darn internet system logs off after 10 minutes of inactivity and will dump anything not saved
Another issue is if we are on a heading of 240T then no internet! Guess what heading we've been on for the last 2 days... Life on the Briny Ocean tossed is not always a fun time!
Especially in Novemeber and on the Flemish Cap (We're heade there as I type!)
Hopefully I will get into the building of kits soon!
Der: Making excellent progress and it looks very promising. More incentive to re-route the Messes main Lines, That's right I only have one main line, well that settles it I'll have to put in a second one! I will be home for Christmas! barring any disaster...
Hoople: I take it you are getting the Aethern BB? Nice! if it runs anything like the Challenger you won't be disapointed!!!
Jeff: Good move on not letting the infection get too out of control But please take care of yourself!
Dick: I here ya loud and clear buddy. I saw the news the other night hard to believe they couldn't get the flooding under control but if the hole is big enough time to bail out and not bail. I've been asked to go skiing with friends come February down to Sunday River. Still on the fence as I want to find out how Lisa's Mom fairs this week but I hear it's just an hour from Conway...
JohnyBoy: Glad to here your team got the Tiger by the Tail! Oops sorry that's Hamilton... Ok They didn't miss the Boat! Ooops sorry that's Toronto!!! Well I'm glad they beat Winnipeg! I was routing for them regardless.
Inch: I know you said something to me the other day but I'm down to a minute before I loose this Ya say it's not true.
Baylor: Nice to know your fiance is into the gardening (my other passion) I still want to pick your brains on CTC and semaphore Automation. Glad to see Ed was able to meet you as Teffy wasn't sure if he was enroute or not. Say hi to Bob for me and tell him I'll give him a call when I get home!
Anyway times up
Fergie

If one could roll back the hands of time... They would be waiting for the next train into the future. A. H. Francey 1921-2007
Good afternoon to all, it is a chilly 44F here and steadily dropping from the high of 60F during the rainstorm last night. Winds are howling here at 25 mph, but a much bigger blast of cold air is headed here for the weekend straight from the Yukon, and, a possible snowstorm on Monday!!
COLBY: As you have read from Cory , the cost of repairs to computers my the Geek Squad, of Fire Dogs, is mighty expensive. You can buy a new Dell computer for around $500 that has DUAL processors, and 2 GB of RAM, so why on earth would anyone want to spend $400 to repair and older PC? Makes no sense!! If the cost to repair ANY piece of equipment is over 50% of the cost of a replacement, forget it unless it has great restoration value, i.e. an antique. Now ask yourself this question, if you take Jeff's advice, and others who said, keep your anti virus program updated at all times, and get a GOOD program, like Defender, Norton, McAfee, etc, ( there are more, and they all are much better than none or an oudated program), is spending $20 for Defender etc. cheaper and far less annoying than spending $400 to repair?? I think you know the answer Colby, now go convince dad. BTW, did you get any snow up your way during this last storm? I know that Fort Kent received over a foot, but you are much further south right?
JEFF: A might bit cool in LA this morning ???? You were colder there then we were here 1400 miles further north !! How are feeling today? BTW, what is on your Christmas wish list?
J.R.: Better bring in the firewood to the garage, it will hit about 12F Sunday morning and again next Tuesday, maybe a snowstorm on Monday too. Good day to do some MRR work
FERGIE: The seas are about to get rough your way, several LOWS are coming out of Canada and swinging back up over the St Lawrence to the North Atlantic....this is not a good time of the year to where you are mon ami!!! Be careful out on deck!!! As for Train trip on the Canadian built 0-6-0, 7470, it is the FIRST weekend in January, not February. Sunday River is about 1 hour from North Conway, it sure would be nice if you could make the trip in January and take that train ride.
DER JOHN: What are spiking your cider with these days? You are like a man on fire with your layout....what an inspiration you are John !!!!!!!
MIKE: Plenty of time to work on your layout these days, too cold and rainy to be outside in the midwest right? How is the price of Pellets these days? I'll bet after the next cold wave comes south they will jump again, they are $5.35 a bag here. And you can hardly buy a Pellet stove, all back ordered, so you know what that will do to the price of pellets.
Time to put another log on the fire, see ya later,
in a AT&SF mug this afternoon, please & thank you!
***Dave, that long-haul tender looks exceelnt. As I have come to expect from you, "Well done!"
***Der, nice progress on the layout. When you are all done, how about building one for me?

Thanks for the compliments on my tender, all! I should soon have the 4-8-2 chasis to start building the loco.
If only I had a budget to fit that huge tender; there's room enough for a Tsunami sound decoder in there! Instead, the $20 DZ123 is more in line with what I can spend at the moment.

Good Afternoon All: I'm early today. We're going to the Christmas party tonight. Us retires get an invite. I'm not really wanting to go primarly because my old boss is going to be there and I really don't want to socalize with him. Anyway the resturant is a good one and in Ft. Worth which is much closer to us here.
The weather is really nice here. It's about 60f and will be that way for a day or so. I started to clean out the old hay barn. I got the 2 pallets of Bentonite out. They were too heavy for the front end loader to lift but I managed to get them out far enough to get them with the hay forks. I was really pushing the tractors limits. Now I have to figure out where to put all the stuff I've stuffed in there the last couple of decades. Anyone wwant a Spelunker? I've got all the molds to make them.
Dave that's a really good job on the tender.
Fergie: You take care there. If that one little fist sized hole in that 2400 ton cruiseship caused it to sink? I know that you guys are better at taking care of stuff like that.
Well I guess I'd better get in the shower and get ready to go.
See you all later.
Fergie: What do you do in the Coast Guard? I'm in the U.S. Coast Guard Way down south on Lake Erie. I see it's almost Christmas; our tender just pulled the WX buoy off the US/Canada boarder yesterday.
High winds today out of the NW, blew all my leaves (and neighborhood trash cans) to a different zip code.

BM1 Lee Soule USCG (ret) L.S.&W Railroad Serving the Lower Great Lakes
Hello! I'm new to the neighbourhood and I heard that the coffee is good here. Plus the patrons don't give you odd looks when you mention model railroad.
By way of introduction I am another returnee to the hobby a couple of years ago after a long absence. In fact I got my first HO engine exactly 50 years ago this month for my 10th birthday. It is an Athearn F7 that I still have. It still runs but by today's standards it is rather crude. I have a small layout on the much maligned 4x8, actually it is 7.5 but I'm happy for that as it isn't the decor item my wife had in mind when we re-did our rec room a couple of years ago. It's also low, only 30" off the floor, as it couldn't be higher than the room divider book case it sits beside. Good thing I'm not tall or is it that I'm short? In any event I'm trying to basically model a CNR sub with mostly steam power. I had all the trackwork and wiring done but then the DCC thing happened so I tore it all up and completely re-did it last month. I also changed to Kato Unitrack from Atlas Trutrack and am glad I made the switch. I don't have a lot of time to devote to it so sectional track with roadbed was the best option for me.
I have been reading this forum for about a year now and have gotten a lot of good advice by reading the posts. I especially want to mention those of Jeffery Wimberley. I always read his posts and like so many others was glad to hear he is on the mend.
I do have one request of Jeffery though. Please stop torturing me with those weather reports! It's depressing enough with a current temp of +2F and a forecast of -17 by Friday. Mind you it is supposed to warm up tomorrow to +10 but there will just be more snow that won't melt until April. In case you are wondering where I might be located, it is in Winnipeg, Canada. Oh well, I can always go downstairs and run trains. It's always summer on CNR's Mortimer sub!
Keep the coffee hot!
Dave (aka CNCharlie)

So Rob - is that like a Popsicle on a stick, but instead more like a Coffee-sicle on a spoon?? I know a few people in the Diner who'll love 'em, I'm sure!
Dave, excellent work on that tender - and in iNvisible scale, too! You da man! And a manuscript on the way? Let us know which MR issue it'll be in, so we can watch for it!
Fergie, watch yourself out there and get yourself back home safe and well, so you can ride that 0-6-0, and re-engineer the MESS(tm)'s main line for two.
DerJohn, I'd forgotten about you mentioning the AMI roadbed for your roads. I don't know if you'd said earlier about painting the roadbed after it's in place. That would make sense, since the AMI roadbed always seemed a bit sticky to me, and I was hesitant to use it because of that. Lets me use up the roll of the roadbed that I was wondering what to do with. And I'd have to agree that you do seem to be working away furiously on your layout. - how much will you get done once it's winter and you are inside with more time to work on the layout...
Colby, once you get the 'puter fixed/replaced, do get one or more of those antivirus and anti-spyware programs on it - and keep the antivirus updated daily. No fun having an infested PC...
Jerry, you must have a pretty handy nephew (and a kind one). Treat him right, definitely!
Our rain has stopped here for now, and it warmed up this afternoon into the 50's, after all. Only supposed to drop to just above freezing tonight, so I'm hoping I won't have any frost to scrape in the morning. It was a pretty nice afternoon.
PC, Paul and my other layout advisors - here's some of the changes that you'd mentioned on the room-sized layout idea:
I like this some better, but would like it if the switchback to the oil dealer didn't stick out so far. Only problem is, if it's not that long I'll have trouble getting very many tanker cars at a time moved into the dealer's siding.
Paul, maybe you can sit at the other end of the table from your former boss?
Mark, I know it'll be hard for you to wait for the Big Boy to arrive, eh? Hang in there in the meantime.
I went by the eye doctor this afternoon, and he said that my ocular (eye) pressure was up (I'd run out of one of the two drops, didn't have refills left and couldn't afford them until payday. He was talking about maybe having surgery on the left (worse) eye - yeah, so how am I going to pay for that?... so-called 'health' coverage... Okay, end of (abbreviated) rant.
Looks like our Easterners are in for some of that fluffy white stuff. Got your shovel? Got the wood moved in close? Got your long johns on? Okay, let it snow! We're not quite ready for that just yet out here in the Midwest, though.
Need to go by the grocery store for some things. Those ribs got me going. Take care and I'll be back in the morning.

, CNRDave, what Lee said! I think we have about 4 Dave's in the Diner from time to time now. I was going to guess you were NOTB, from your weather description. And what have you been doing to keep the CFO (wife) happy, so maybe she will authorize additional trackage rights for the Mortimer division, by the way? Might check what's on her Christmas wishlist; it could work to your long-term advantage...
Have a cup of your favorite beverage on me, since you've already filled us in on your layout and modelling style. And enjoy the Diner, since you've moved from peeking in the windows to grabbing a seat at the table inside. Oh, one thing you may have noticed - don't sit between PC and the kitchen when one of our lovely servers bring a pie in, you don't want to get trampled in the stampede...

Hey Jim,
Is it possible to put a little less swing on those tracks to tighten them up? Something like this?
