Morning/afternoon all...
I've been meaning to get back here, but it's been a hectic week, We had Henry's funeral yesterday, which was a lovely service, he got a military honour for his 25 years in the army, and the last post was played. His wife was presented with a Service Medal which Henry was due to recieve Next Anzac Day.
anyway here are the steamer pics from last sunday...
sorry firefox doesn't allow copy and pasting, so i will post them soon.

LUC: Congratulations GREAT GRANDFATHER, and best wished to mom, dad and baby!!!!!! Gloria must be overjoyed !!!
STEVE: Great to hear from you again. BTW, we were watching the news tonight and saw the Tornado damage that hit London ( yes, that's right CS members here in the USA, England gets hit with Tornados too ). The weather men here on the local channels said that the storm that hit London was the same storm that hit New England with violent weather last Friday.Glad to hear you are Ok Steve !!
Time to hit the sack, see you guys in the morning..
Hmmm, nice cake!
And I've got this page, with pleasure!
OK, besides cigars, what'll it be?
I suppose a Birthday Cake is in order! Let's make it a nice one!
Thought I'd make it a nice one since all you'll be getting for the next few years is Barney the purple dinosaur!
To Haley! And Congrats to Luc!
Luct: WHOPPTY DO. Congrats great grand pa.
Trent: Good to see you back in the cs. Have you been doing any MRRing?
JimCG: The retirement dosen't start untill 2 Feb. I'm just practicing now.
It's time for me to head to bed. I'll see you all tomorrow.
Luc:
Her name is Haley Elaine, she was born at 6:45pm weighing 8lbs 5oz
Congratulations GPP, and how about a little something “to wet the baby’s head” as they say? As you know, Chloë will get you virtually anything!
Steve: Good to hear from you again. I guess it’s a matter of what you want to do most, gaze at perfection, or operate trains. I’d go for the operations layout myself, and adapt solutions to the way it looks as time goes by. Easier to do that than retrofit for good ops.
Goodnight all, and God Bless. Prayers for all in need of healing, comfort and peace.

'grats Luc!
on another high note - I just commandeered the three locos above for LESS than I thought (i was making the assumption that the bid on the Niagara would be at the max). Cost me as much for the three of them as the Niagara itself would have (well, incl. shipping on both counts).
I can't wait to get my "new" locos...

Congrats Luc! I'm glad everything came out alright. (excuess the pun)

Gloe and I are now great grand parents. I have pics tomorrow.
Thanks for your support and comments.
Well guys and gals I get to start a new assignment at work for a while anyway till they hire someone else to do it then I will go back to my old job or who knows I might like it and they may let me stay there. I'm going to be empting tank cars of Propane to our storage tanks. So our tractor trailors can get it and deliver it to our 5 plants so our trucks at our plants can deliver it to our customers.
I been doing a dot/osha course this eveing will still be doing it this weekend to get it completed told will take about 8 hours to complete.
Howdy Folks,
Sorry its been so long this is our busiest time of the year.
Everyone is well and happy. I got my Christmas shopping done and feel great.
For the N-scalers we have the $4000 collection processed so email me w/your wish list and I'll see if we have it. All stock has rapido couplers.
HELP!!!!!!!
We need a great decaler who can reproduce a logo to HO scale. We have the models painted and ready to go so please e-mail me and we'll work something out.
Thanks for the replys and assistance.
My email is trentbair@sbcglobal.net
Egg nog all around for not being in more often.
Trent
Dick - thanks. And thanks for pointing out my historical inaccuracy earlier... wouldn't want to be spreading too much of those internet mistakes.... I make enough of my own...
DAN: You may be just out of your teen age years Dan, but the very fact that can recognize what is really going on with youngsters, makes you wise beyond your years. The one thing that I have learned about life after 67 years, and that I regard as most important, is that everything we do must be in moderation and balance. I am happy to see that you have embraced a really good hobby, one that can give you hours of your own creativity.
OK guys, Zoe has asked me to set up music in the CS so that when we arrive in the morning, we can start off our day with a little "JOY". So turn ON the speaker at your table and give a listen, and see how you like it.....ohh..and I added a little video screen too at MIKE and DUKE's request.

Later,
Evening all,
just a quick java for me, not been in much latley, lots on my mind and lots to do. I have done a fair bit on the layout, at present i'm just working on the peninsular up the middle of the garage, i have been laying out the buildings and trying diferent track plans but can't decide which way to go, one gives me plenty of operating fun but does not look right, the other looks right but does not give me much operating fun, Mmmmmmm
i'll sleap on it

If I find out it's you who sniped that loco outta my hands...
I've been a bit e-bay happy myself though (Christmas presents to myself):
<$200 shipped. I think I got off pretty well - even if the smoke for the Niagara is a gimmick, I'm still getting all three for a little more than a Niagara @ MSRP.
If the Niagara doesn't pull that well... c'est la vie. At least it'll look nice on the rails (though I'll need to get it a few cars to pull as well...)
Yep - I'm a lost cause. Chalk up another chronic case of MRR-Sickness.
Good afternoon, Chloe - I'll take it easy on PA - just some cheese fries and a Dr. Pepper for now. That's assuming that it's not all gone like the rootbeer, too.
Just dropping by before I head home and then to dinner with daughter and son-in-law. Celebrating Thanksgiving and my birthday (a week ago on the latter); going to eat Mexican (would really like a small steak or salmon, but they're buying, so I'm going easy on their budget).
As for what I'd like under the treee, a nice USRA Mikado (P2K would do okay) would be nice - I'm easy to please. I've actually been a bit too active with eBay lately - will have to take a vacation from them until after the New Year. Won two Kadee boxcars last night (40' and a 50'), and I'm still waiting on some other things to get here. Dang post office box was empty again today(!).
Will be taking off work between Christmas and New Year's - that will be nice! Say, Paul - how's that retirement thing coming along? Fighting the urge to go back to work?
Luc, any word on the grandbaby yet? And do you have a suitable toy ready for the young'un yet (like, say, a Thomas the Train or such?)?
Well, about time to clock out here, so I'll see you all later.
Blessings,
Jim in Cape Girardeau
