no prob john. I think they limit it to 5 w/ a regular thing, but photobucket pro lets you go to 10. I don't think youtube has a limit though. But then, i don't have the stuff to create a movie for the internet, so I rally don't know.
madsinger: take me with you man, lol. Ya'll have finals in the middle of winter? Wouldn't that be midterms (had mine the week b4 christmas break (I'm in 8th, but taking algebra1, english1, and spanish1).

I've got a turntable up at my parent's house, want to bring it down to the house, but right now with the remodel going, well, it just isn't feasible.

twhite Heartland Division CB&Q Tom W. Speaking of Walthers heavyweight cars. ...I just ran my solarium observation for the first time. It derailed. Manufacturer did not allow enough clearance for the rear coupler box to clear a pivoting truck. I have 30 inch minimum curves, and there is no way the car would have handled a 24" curve as stated on the box. I trimmed the box, and it runs fine now. Happy Model Railorading Garry: You, TOO? I drooled over that Walthers Solarium for my "Royal Gorge" for about a week before I dashed over to Railroad Hobbies and grabbed it. Same thing. Loosened the truck, filed down the contact screws, finally realized it was the danged coupler box. Like you, I trimmed the heck out of it, and like you, I have wide-radius curves (34" minimum). Runs like a dream now, but at THAT price why did we have to do so much 'adjusting'? End of rant. Glad yours runs well now. They are really handsome cars! Tom

Evening all,
John, Awesome video!

JOHN---The video was good!!!
You guys have been busier than a weekend today. Did some of you not work?
I come home from work to how many pages?
Looks like my water in the streambed is setting up faster this time.
Sue
Anything is possible if you do not know what you are talking about.
CapeJim:, I thought that all you had to do is click on the film looking icon and the thing would play. Doesn't it? If it doesn't for you, I can post the dirrect url. First time I've heard of having to be a memeber to access the videos, sure doesn't work that way with photos.
Sawyer: The time limit is, in the case of my vid. 4:53...so you were close! I've made a separate movie of the second part, called (wouldn't you know it) Part 2. The whole thing is from that Arts Society presentation I've yet to make; so the title about Harbour Grace is worded for folks who probably haven't seen model trains do anything except go round a Christmas Tree. I'm therefore begging your indulgence. Here's the clip.
Thanks for the kind words about the video Flip, Lee, etc. Today's ending way better than it started, I sorted out a problem similar to yours Tom, and now my VIA train is backing its way into the terminal like it should instead of derailing on the lead track. I'd put on a cosmetic coupler for the end of the observation, and it was fouling the skirt that curves in at the rear of the car. Turning it upside down, and some minor surgery to the casting of the rear steps has solved the difficulty.
Goodnight all. God Bless,and prayers for all in need of healing, comfort and peace.

Evening all...
It seems you've put at least seven pages in between my posts... Wow, you people talk alot.
Sawyer: You may not be an idiot, but just because you 5'11'' and 188 doesn't mean your invincible. At 5'7'' and 150 I can take down my friend Victor who is 5'11'' and 217... And he's a noseguard. Looks like we share school colors, my school is green and gold. So is the highschool... Good thing the pack is one of my favorite teams.
Never got to the train show this weekend, oh well. Partied all last night though with a couple friends... (Wasn't wild, only loud music...) Too bad I've got school tommorow... I guess friday is off in the distance, which is nice to look forward too.
Catch y'all later.
Mark
***Der, now that video clip (from your last post) I had no problem accessing. Thanks! You have a lot of track laid there and that is some bridge span. Enjoyed your container handling demo as well. "Good stuff"
It's about 1:30am here, so time for some sleep. Got a lot done this evening, all woodworking but none of it train related. Sigh. That old H-Do list is getting in the way of beginning work on train tables & shelves. Maybe by next weekend.
Healing thoughts to those in need.
Good night all. Rob
Good Morning from Tipton IN !

Good morning all. Zoe some decaf to start. I'll browze the menu a bit, thanks.
As I promised 2 views of one of my favorite laser wood kits. This is about as close as I can get with this lens.The interior has a split interior with multiple lights. On the original layout wires came from a power pole to the strain relief with the feed to the meter. Sme details such as the back door and part of the front porch railing were 'misplaced' during storage.
Eric I guess they need to be resized....Help!
IT'S A HEATWAVE OUT THERE!!!!!!
Double digits! And on the right side of the 0 mark!
Mornin' all!
Indianapolis, IndianaCurrently: 10°F Partly CloudyWind: Northwest at 9 MPHHumidity: 87%Dewpoint: 7°FBarometer: 29.92 inches and risingWind Chill: -3°F
Yeah, that wind chill puts it back in perspective though.
Lookin' forward to another day at the office and then home to work on my hot tub project.
How about you? Whats up with you?
New Haven I-5PC, you're a Seinfield fan!? I am too!
Yeah, I've watched a few (hundred thousand) eposodes here and there.
Eric, awesome job on the house! I almost want to move in!
der, you make me want to go work on my own layout. That video was really good! Showed off the layout and all your hard work well!
Guess since nobody else has set it up (and I'm on TOP), I'll get the breakfast bar going.......
Good Morning People, Chloe, I'll have 3 eggs--sunnyside up--sausage and hash browns and a coffee please---
We are going up to -11C with a mix of sun/cloud and a chance of snowflurries---then we start to come up to -2C by Friday. Oh, tonight we are going to -20C for a low (!?)
Eric; That is a HOUSE!! Love it!!
Der; 7nd vid is excellent!!
Today I'm going to the office to pick up new schedule for myself and I'm out of town to see clients North of here----A kind of short day but, hey, it is something to do-------so I'm going to sit by the window and watch the trains-----
I will have some pancakes, and oj for now.
I guess I will go to a LHS today, and see what I can find to "weather". I normally get some train shots there as well. I will have to bundle up, its pretty cold today.
Other than that, not much going on with me.
"Rust, whats not to love?"
Morning Gang: Just a quick stop. I'll have a cup of coffee and one of those sugar free donuts. I wish someone would come up with sugar free donuts in the world.
Der great video. I'll have to look for part 2.
Erick good to hear that you are copping. I'm still praying for your folks.
Well time to take the granddaughter down to the school bus and then go to Wally World for some dish washer dertergent.
See you all later.
Sitting here at work, 'waiting for parts'. Nice spread Philip, I think I'll have some waffles with those delicious looking strawberrys. You have whip cream I hope!
I have a few Laserline kits on the shelf.. maybe it's time to open them up while waiting on word on Mom.
Eric
in a SOUTHERN mug, waffles, scrambled eggs, and hashbrowns, please & thank you.
***Eric, that house is excellent.
Need more sleep but think I'm up for the day. Have much to do. Have a good one, y'all. Rob
ewl01You have whip cream I hope!
Yeah, it's around here somewhere.............OH! HERE IT IS!
Coffee, Coffee, Coffee. I feel like a slow starter. I have a hike this morning. Yes, it is freezing.
der, Great video. Does the top layer connect with the bottom?
Eric, Serious details on that laser kit. Which one is it?
Sue, now that I think about it, I don't believe it is a 'Branchline Laser kit'. I'll have to see if I still have the manual. I built it over 6 years ago.
Thanks all for the approval. Eric
Mornin’ everbody. Oooh breakfast bar looks good, but I think I‘ll have biscuits and gravy and a cup of coffee please. Well maybe some grapes. Wow, they’re right lotsa pages here. Peeked in the window a few times yesterday but no time to stop. I see where I missed Lasagna and pie. Lasagna was real tempting but the pie, I ate soooo much pie Sunday I don’t want to see pie for … say Zoe you wouldn’t happen to have a piece of that Rhubarb pie left over would you? I’ll take a piece of that.
Kinda busy yesterday. Nothing spectacular, just general houswooo… Uh I mean THINGS I had to do around the house (ehem).uh wanted to do. Yes wanted. (eh hem) Is it warm in here?
Der John- Great video. And an equally great for your layout.
Eric- Excellent job on the house. Looks ready to move in as soon as you find a good lot for it.
Well I guess I best get movin’ for the day.

Eric...Outstanding modeling on Laser Kit......Great job on brick work ....
You all have a good one...Jerry
Mornin' everyone!
That breakfast buffet looks good so I think I go fill a plate if you you would just bring me my FGLK Mug full of Dark Roast Chloe. How come Philip didn't have you put out the rest of that Sweet Potato pie and the Strawberry Rubarb pie from yesterday? What? He ate it all!!!
Currently a nice seasonable 17°F here in the Finger Lakes. That is just about at the predicated high, so I best go rake the coals and reload the wood stove.
Cox 47Sallie and I are watching all that is going on in Washington today..
I'll be seeing it at the local college this evening on a very "wide screen" at a program there. They will have a speaker later who will be speaking as a part of the Colleges week long celebration of the MLK Holiday and their community service program. I also have to get a lot of stuff done before I head over there late this afternoon.
I enjoyed the videos Der. Good luck with that presentation!
Eric I like that house. Looks ready to move into.
I see there is still room in the window booth. I'll be over there talking with Barry and watching the trains. Besides there seems to be someone running a chain saw in back where Rob is........
Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
We'll get there sooner or later!
Here's one for you gear heads. As you may know my car has been running somewhat poorly. I've been trying different things trying to find out what's wrong. The computer said it was the EGR valve. I replaced that and it made absolutely no difference. This morning, on a hunch, I disconnected the O2 sensor. No difference whatsoever. The way I've heard that should have made a difference. What do you think?
Dr. Frankendiesel aka Scott Running BearSpace Mouse for president!15 year veteran fire fighterCollector of Apple //e'sRunning Bear EnterprisesHistory Channel Club life member.beatus homo qui invenit sapientiam
Yes it should have made a big difference
Normally the O2 sensors control the lean/rich mixture
i had one go bad on a car i owned and it caused the mixture to go
rich
So much so it would run rough and some times even load up and stall out
if i remember right the replacement was less than 20 $
