 Good MorningDaylight savings time will surely shorten the weekend.    We have snow this morning.  Just when we were thinking that spring was on its way.

Maybe we will have some layout time.

Well I'm trying to catch up.  A few pages behind.  ANYWAYS.................

Good morning, I hope everybody turned your clocks forward.  Its going to be rainy, and somewhat warm today.

Mostly sat around, and cleaning the house yesterday.  Did go by the neighbors house to hang out for a few hours.  

I am going to try to get some stuff done on the layout today.  OR at least run some trains.  

Well guys/gals, I will try to catch up.  Everybody have a good day.

Mornin' Think I'll have coffee and a sweet roll please and thank you. We dodged the storms and guessed at amount of rain last night. Our turn to give the Lenten reading at church. Saw the Preacher at the FFA Prime Rib dinner last eve. He laughed when I accused him of pickin me to read after losing an hour of sleep. He said he planned it that way to get me in early on a Saturday night. Talking about the Prime Rib, boy was it good. Whew. I think I had half the roast on my plate. And cooked perfect. Better than MOST I've had at restaurants around here, and no I'm not talking about "Hungry Heifer" type restaurants. I was stuffed when I left that place.

Jeff- You had me scratchin' thereLaugh. I first saw this post, and was wondering, "I know he knows the difference" Confusedthen I saw your other thread with a different picture and it CLEARLY showed 4 wheels. " Ah the angle must make it look that way" Thumbs UpThen after Chris said something then I started looking again and then I noticed a few other things Alien....... Like he said, eye strain. I was quite fun trying to figure out what was going on. Especially when I had a preconceived idea of what it was I was looking at. And I also think it should have a "J" at the end no matter what model number you decide. How about GD30J known as the "Wimberly" Approve(is this how locos got their nicknames)

Tyler- Yes on a few I already have (just a part like you said) but my plan is to do the visible part or at least enough to give you the impression. I wouldn't call it SUPERdetailing but my empty buildings look so,... well,.... empty. Probably because at this point there isn't a whole lot of scenery to distract the eye, so you can't help but window peek.

Welcome Back Luc- Nice to meet you my name's Todd. I like your Signature block saying. Feel free indeed!Thumbs Up

Inch- Sounds like you got a great weekend to look forward to. That should make this week drag. Doesn't sound like you got any bad storms. We got just a few rumbles of thunder and a small amount of rain.

Well, I hope everyone dodged the bad stuff that passed through last night and misses any lingering storms today. Have a great day!

 Good morning.

It's 67 and cloudy. The high should be around 80 and it will be partly cloudy.

Spent about an hour yesterday working on what on some other forums is universally being called the GD30J. This was mostly to get the GP30 body seated firmly on it's new 6 axle frame. Being I'm not sure if the frame is from Kato or Atlas I would say this is now an Athelas GD30J or a Kathearn GD30J or just some kind of kit bashed conglameration that up to now had been residing somewhere in the dark recesses  of the back of my mind. I wouldn't mind having better side frames for it but as somebody once said you're stuck with what you've got. Much of the middle of the day was spent mowing my parents yard. My father got a new battery for the old tractor since I prefer using it over the new one. It's a simple question of math. A machine with a 60" cut gets the job done faster than one with a 46" cut, even if the smaller one can get into a few more places. Maybe soon I'll have time to work on some other projects.

Luc,  Good to see you back in the diner!

Jim, It looks like a busy day at the freight house, darn kids don’t know what it is to work for an honest days pay, always laying down on the job.

Well hello again all!

 Fiancee and I made it to a train show today... I picked up two yard switchers, and a couple tank cars.  All four have horn hook couplers... I am trying to get one of the now four road switchers I have converted to DCC so that I can have the cars currently on the roster in use until I can convert or purchase cars with kadee couplers...

The two yard switchers that I got are in fair condition.  One is an AHM Conrail No. 79 unit, the motor is loose on it's mount, but a ziptie would fix that issue.  The other one has an interesting chassis that the motor is built into...  I can't tell who makes it but the engine is painted for ATSF No. 241

Jeff: I enjoyed the SD-30JK!!!  I too was convinced that I was looking at something I was not!  Great job!

Well, good night my friends!

Sam

 May He bless you, guide you, and keep you safe on your journey through life!

Tall glass of cool lemon water, please. 

***J.R., have been contemplating your suggestion and the one sticky point I see is the spacing of the timbers. I set it beside the wife's HO trestles and the spacing is almost identical, so it has got to be HO. If I did modify it, wouldn't the spacing still look funny and large for an n scale train? I'll try to take pics of it tomorrow, next to the little N(?) trestle. That N trestle looks almost more like Z scale to me. Will post pics and ask for identification. Sheesh, sure hope I don't have to give up even more Real Estate so the wife can make use of the (now 3rd) HO trestle.Pirate (I think it could work on her layout, once I get some 15" radius track for the lumber mill area...shhhh!Wink)

Only thing I had time for in the train room was to glue down the last base section(s) of foam. Now I'll need to get that extra track we'll need for our respective layouts.

Have a good night all.Cowboy Rob

Looks like you're getting the rain we had here earlier.  It looks like it will be raining for a while there/here.

Just set my clocks now.

Well, I've had just about zero time lately, but I got some stuff done. I got more sidewalks done, almost finished up the track plan, and I did a little on my F40 project. The rear platform on the model was squared off, and the pilot was close to the end of the platform. While I was cutting off the rear a few weeks ago, the platform fell off (cut too much). But it worked out. I chopped the pilot off the platform. I sanded the corners of the platform off, so that they would be angled. I glued the pilot back on, closer to the front of where the platform was. I need styrene, paint, decals, LEDs, and couplers for the rest of the project, but that won't be for a while. I might work on it in the summer (I'll be down the shore, which means NO LAYOUT!!! :( so it will give me something to do). Pics for everything will come eventually (hopefully tomorrow!).

I don't know how much I'll be around till Memorial Day. Lacrosse started yesterday, and it's six days a week (we can't have practice on Sundays). School ends at 2:34, practice goes 2:45-5, takes 1/2 hour to get home, eat, do homework, sleep. Not much time, so don't expect to see too much of me around here.

We have the hockey banquet tomorrow morning. The team is going to Mass at 10:45, followed by brunch at noon.

Found a couple Plasticville pieces before, a gas station and I think a machine shop.  I' have to dig it out of the box, may need roofs.  I'll put up pics tomorrow, they're free for the asking.

A machine shop? If it;s HO that's something I could probably make use of.

Good Evening All,

    Another long day at the new shop setting up the front of the shop where reception will be and the area where the lunch table will be. For the record, though we may bear some resemblence to  each other however remote, Ray is the new grandfather not I. I'm really much, much too young to be a grandfather. For heavens sake folks lets not rush this stuff.

Rob - if the one trestle is too wide for N is it wide enough to double track in N? Could you narrow the top to suit? can you put the other "proper" N trestle far enough back to make it look like forced perspective?

Please keep those heavy crates well away from that poor clumsy employee. Safety regs require two employees on heavy shipments. Doesn't WS or someone else make temp workers?Smile

Jeff - how about RD30m an SD specially modified for branchline duty by the front office which was unable to find the money to sufficiently strenghten the line in question. That'd look good too patched out for service.

Welcome back Luc - sorry to hear about the puter, but I'm glad it's not something else. Any chance you've progressed on Glotown ?

I'll just lurk for a while until the sandman swipes my sight again.  J.R.

 Hi there!

 

A stranger from the past..........

 

Update.......

 

My puter crashed a while ago and replacement has not made it to the priority list.  I can use one at work from time to time.

 

I'm still working and playing nurse to Gloria. 

I'm now on insulin (50 units a day).  I tire very easy but life goes on.

 

Hope everyone is well.

  No, Mad, but I've been planning to do just that, so I guess that sorta makes me guilty, yer honor!Whistling

I just do the part that you can see before the "darkness" sets in and makes it worthless.  Didn't mean to sound braggy, I just wanted to see if anyone else did.  If anyone is interested, if figures in buildings can only be seen from one side, cardboard cutouts work just swimmingly.  They're a lot cheaper, too.  And, you can put your family on the layout.

You can call me Tyler, too.

we kit -"bashers" are going to have to find a neutral word to call what we do

THAT editor of mine hates the word "that." Somebody elsewhere in the forums gets their knickers in a twist over the word "bash."

Good grief.

Life is just too short for THAT kind of crap. I say, if you wanna kitBASH, or kitMINGLE, or...combine components... go for it! WHO cares WHAT you call it???

I'm proud to say I kitBASH, by the way... which is the term I learned, and the term I'll stick with, thank you very little... Legions of well-known, and rather accomplished modelers have kitBASHED for many, many years.

It's just a word.

OK...back off the soapbox.

Steak sounds really GOOD.... 12oz. sirloin, medium well will do nicely Chloe...

Good Evening, Flo - I'll have the beef stew and some chopped onions for a little addition, plus a RBF, please and thanks!

PC, sounds like you had a good long ride - and others got some good walking of the dogs in. Yeah!! I'd agree that your handcar looks mighty tiny there. But if a cat gobbled that up, as Eric mentioned, I'd hate to think of the kind of hairball that would produce...Whistling

Really nice weather here today (though a bit windy) reached 70 F (21 C or so) this afternoon. I went by H-L and picked up this:


which I'm thinking of using for a 'general' store or grocery type interior, have the veggie boxes on some wooden counters (or some height to be determined).

And then there's the day that Henry has been having at the freight station... He's right in the middle of clearing the platform and getting all the local shippers' trucks loaded up with their boxes, crates and packages. Except the new kid he hired apparently lost his footing. Poor Henry's thinking what that may do to his workman's comp. rates, and wondering why he didn't retire this year like he was thinking about doing...

As you maybe can tell, I went shopping earlier today. Oops I still have to wade through the book and learn what this baby can do, but it should take care of 99 percent of what I need (or more). And now, I'll have to clean up the apartment, so you don't see all my junk in the background of pics.Blush But I will be able to post some better grade of pics of what I'm doing. Who knows? I might even start posting to WPF, too!

Eric, can you put a small dumpster next to the house on the side where the chimney is? I don't know what those things cost to rent, but it might save your back and legs.

Sam, that'd be good if you don't have to leave your new bride to go hustling an engine! Best wishes on the rest of your schooling, and get to bed so you get enough sleep, y'hear? Thumbs Up

Yeah!!, Todd, you don't want to be hasty about finishing up all those projects! Laugh We might get some of those T-storms here, after midnight they're saying. Looks like they're talking about on-a-day, off-a-day for the next 3 or 4 days with those storms.

MadSinger

Jeff, you prankster, you! And Chris, please DO remember to post those early notices for us (up high, where a certain someone can't 'touch them up' a bit, if you catch my drift...)

Barry, I think the famous Art Curren (with some books on "Kit-bashing" structures, ahem...) also used that kit-mingling term as well.

As for those forum threads - perhaps (with apologies to Garry) I could call that a result of "March Madness"?...  (Sneaking quietly toward the back door so Barry doesn't decide to 'recycle' that pie...)

Maybe I can finish my stew before he notices me...

 

Blessings and prayers,

Jim in Cape Girardeau
