Since there are so many Musicians hanging around here, I thought I would post one of what happens to old singers (Eastman School '68) when both their voices and ears get worn out (Actually the voice is just fine, the ears are just about shot and I can't sing well with the hearing aids...)
This shot (at least the old connie) seems to be popular here:
Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
We'll get there sooner or later!

Not that I post much here, but just to be neighborly.
I am the guy with the hat on. This was a class sponsored by the Railroad to familiarize emergency personnel with the basics of railcars and locomotives. We toured the cab, I got to shut the engine down and we crawled over some tank cars, a covered hopper and boxcar.

And for the car lovers, this is my ute(aussie term) its a V8(boys drive 6's) and the bar on the front is for any bugger that gets in me way....
Sometimes I wear an engineer's cap when operating trains....but rarely
I have a buddy that works for a power plant, and he's always dumping coal loads with a rotary dumper. He called me up because the locomotive crews wouldn't be back for the empties until morning. You have NO idea of the sheer size and power, until you're actually in or on a locomotive.

Me and my other hobby and below is my best friend in the world, Debbie.The airplane is a 1946 Ercoupe with a Continental 4-cylinder 85 horepower engine in it.Flies at a solid 95 to 100 mph on 4 1/2 gallons of fuel an hour.Not bad mileage when you consider your doing 100 mph.Think car gas is expensive???? Try 100 octane low lead aviation gas at about $4.75 to $5.00per gallon!Ercoupes are an affordable and fun airplane to fly!In nice weather slide the cockpit windows open and fly open cockpit, GREAT FUN!!!LOW N SLOW!!!
In this next picture, Debbie is "showing off" my 2006 Mustang powered by a 210 horespower V6.
She likes my involvement with both my train hobby and my flying hobby, and is always encouraging me with them!A guy just couldn't ask for a better friend!

Me (another car guy here):
My current Project:
It's got a 360 4 barrel,34" tires, dana 60's, NP435 4 speed and NP205 T case in it right now, but Im going to yank the 360 and replace it with twin turbo, fuel injected 5.9L magnum... Hoping for north of 600 HP... Im gonna stick 40's under it, and modify the 205 transfer case to make it all wheel drive with some parts from a 203 Transfer case and locking differentials.. Im a car guy that happens to like trains.
Hello well this is me and my little girl in the train room.
Have a nice day Frank
Not train-related, but at least has a predecessor of trains!
Recent family vacation to England, we stayed most of the week on the boat in the background, while travelling a portion of the Trent & Mersey canal.

Really nice Ken, I can dig a burn out anytime. But I'm sure some of the neighbors would disagree. LOL
