Afternoon all,
To late for donuts, but I'll have a blueberry muffin.
It's a very slow day with a few posts.
I been looking at some Norfolk Southern videos pulling some coal cars. I been trying to identify what locomotives are assigned to them.
I tried doing scram for my modern layout and two other ones, but I got bored laiding track and founding pieces to fit.

angelob6660 - I been looking at some Norfolk Southern videos pulling some coal cars. I been trying to identify what locomotives are assigned to them.
The coal trains I see where I railfan can be a mix of any of the 6 axles. Today a coal train had an SD70ACe in the lead with a D9-40CW trailing. But they often have ES44AC, ES44DC, Dash 8s, well, you get the picture. Oh, we often see foreign power assigned to the coal trains as well.
Speaking of railfanning, yesterday I finally got photos of the Conrail Heritage unit. It has been very elusive and I was beginning to think I would never see it. But at long last, she showed up. I now have photos of all of the Heritage units. Another surprise was the "GoRail" showed up today. First time I've seen that one too. Good weekend railfaning with a total of 25 trains. Last Saturday we had 17 on Saturday and 13 on Sunday.

I figured out the light pipes and was all set to glue everything in when it occured to me to connect it to the DCC board. The DCC board seems dead, no reset possible. It's the NCE basic board DA-SR in an old Atlas RS1. The loco ran when I soldered all the truck and motor leads. I changed the address. It went forward and backward a couple feet and I took it off the tracks. It was never consisted, locked, or shorted on turnouts, it sat on my bench of 2 weeks and now it's dead.
Not happy, not because it's dead, but because I don't know the cause.

re the decoder: C.O.D.=Cause Of Death...
As you may remember, yesterday my back decided to give me grief enough that I didn't go to work. Before I went out to the ranch, I grabbed a generic heat pack and put that one. That seems to have solved the problem. With that on, it loosened up my back enough that I could move and lean and all that other stuff.
The river bed after the application of the paper mache. (Newspaper ground up in a blender. Unfortunately, in the process of finishing off the last sheet of newspaper I had grabbed, I blew up my blender. No big loss. Cheap box store blender. Thankfully, I had enough mix to finish off the river.) Rather than using plastic flatware, I decided it would be easier to just use my fingers. This was taken shortly after I finished. When it dries, it will turn a light gray. Main project for the day.I then decided to finish up a few random projects. I found a terminal joiner in order to provide eventual power for the shelf track. I had thought about putting undertable machines on a couple of other turnouts on the switchback, but decided to wire up remote machines for the two. (One of the turnouts already was equipped with one and I had another machine on the table that I could use. Additionally, I didn't think I could keep the points centered to get the throw installed.) After finishing the remote machines, I decided to chop some ties for the eventual need for building 4 more crossings.
I then decided to get some more roads builld. (Another nice thing about the expansion.) These are the same shingles that I have used on other parts of the layout. This is the side by the industrial yard.
This is the area where the new road joins the already existing section. (The very top of the previous picture.) This section goes off the end of the layout and the narrow section to the top left goes off toward the river and the track for puller engine storage. Most of these sections are just put down as I ran out of construction adhesive. The curved section in Picture 3 and the top angled section in this picture are glued. (Wasn't planning for roadwork, so I didn't get an additional supply.)

On an aviation note, I was sitting in a backyard in Barrie, Ontario (50km north of Toronto) today (Sunday) when I heard the distinct sound of four big piston engines reverberating overhead! I only got a quick glimpse. It looked sort of like a B17 but I can't be sure. It was silver with a blue stripe on the tail. It didn't look like military markings to me, but as I said, I only got to see it for a few seconds.
The only reason I could think of to explain the presence of such a rare beast would be the Canadian National Exhibition Air Show. The C.N.E. air show has been a fixture in Toronto every late August for decades. The aircraft I saw would likely have been using CFB Borden (Canadian Forces Base) which is just west of Barrie. I went to the air show website but there was no mention of anything like what I saw.
Cheers!

Good Morning one and all!Not much to report from the land of withered Buckeyes other then another hot day is on tap so, no railfaning today. Work on the new Slate Creek is progressing slowly the bench work is up 12" wide boards on metal "L" shelving braces set at 18" centers at 54"" height from the floor-for me that just upper chest level perfect viewing for switching when standing and since I will be using manual Peco switches perfect. Once the track is down I will add two jacks for my Tech 6 throttle. I'm debating if a bus and feeders is really needed since the layout is L shape and each leg is 12' . I decided my video gaming table and work desk will occupy the other two walls. My older 12' Slate Creek is still in operation since its portable and thus the slow rate building the new Slate Creek.Hindsight is clearly 20/20..I should have incorporated that layout into my new Slate Creek. I suspect once the snow starts flying and the wind chill is below the zero mark the new layout will be built in no time at all.
In my best Homer Simpson's voice MMMM Donuts..Donuts is the vice I keep well hidden from my diabetes doctor. I figure two jelly donuts once or twice a month won't hurt seeing my 6 month blood sugar test averages around 6.2 which is in the acceptable range.
My morning and evening test averages around 100. Even at that she would go nuclear on me if she knew of my donut vice-she hates everything sweet.. I would hate to be her husband or kid sheesh!Have a good'un!

Flo Good morning. Can I have a glass of water? I need something to wass these ibuprofen down. I had to go to my fathers house and fix some stuff in his house because he is laid up in the Rehab center. Involved some demo, ripping and hauling out. Plumbers coming today to fix the problem. Man I am so sore. Used muscles not used in a while . I tell you when it rains it pours !
Also please set everyone up for whatever breakfaxt they want. panckes, steak and eggs, grits, scrapple, oatmeal ( yuck ) or whatever they want. Looks like there has been some very fine food in here this weekend ! Oh and set Vinney up to he is in a bad mood maybe that will help restore the smile on his face.
Gotta run, inspections, meetings, problems to solve....

Thanks to Weighmaster, today's lunch special is... COD.
Tell your server if you don't want all the red sprinkles on it. Might be paprika, might be cayenne pepper, even Vinnie doesn't know because the label's worn off the shaker and nobody's ordered it in so long.

Mornin' everyone!
Yawn........! I am still in recovery mode from the party last Saturday evening. Ah, Zoe, I have a couple of those thingies that JaBear brought in this morning. Oh, and yes, a large pot of Marrakesh Express Dark Roast Coffee would be great to wash it down.... What? Yes, my R&GV RR mug is a good choice.....
Steven, I'll save what your having for dinner tonight. Looks delicious! Lunch today will be down at Water Street Café downtown. An old Scouting friend and collegue who is coming over today to work on planning a training program (JLT) for the Handicapped Troop we work with. That is only two weeks away and we have a lot to get done on it. I need to find someone to give Blackie his morning insulin in order for me to be able to stay out at camp that Friday night so we can get started early in the morning on Saturday....
I still need to catch up on some of the posts before the guy arrives, so I'll catch you all later!

Mentioning the blender, the box store is easier for me than the thift shop. I don't exactly remember why I started using ground up newspaper but it seems to work very well for what I need it for. I have used it in another section of water and I even used it on top of some of my beadboard scenery. (Didn't dfry quite as fast as on the screen but it still worked.)
I've been using shingles for roads since I was in high school. (They were castoffs from when my paternal grandparent's had their roof shingled. I remember that it reminded me of gravel roads.) Hence, why I picked up as many of the unused pies as I could.
Good evening everyone.
Chloe, any more of that special left? Feeling adventurous, so I will take one with the "red sprinkles" please. Even take extra "sprinkles" from those who didn't want them, if that's allowed. A ice water, and a Coke, for drinks please. Thanks.
Weather - Still quite warm here too.
Weekend - Well, w**k took up Saturday, and got called in for a few hours yesterday, as someone turned in her two-weeks notice, then called off yesterday... No further comment on that.... Before getting off for a graduation party for a friends daughter. (Yep, it was a very warm temperature, so a hot party.... Weather wise.) I got roped into the egg-toss game, and into two volleyball games. The food was chicken, pepperoni balls, watermelon, and salad. Cupcakes and cake-pops for desert. Went through more bottled water than I have in a week. The volleyball was fun, if a bit warm. The second game lasted quite sometime, as we kept forgetting the score and starting over... But it was later in the day, so it was cooler, and was more fun. Still really don't know which team won, but it don't really matter. It was just for fun anyway.
Speaking of w**k - No, still no further comment on the call-off.... Got 209 pieces of truck today... Next truck, due Wednesday, is going to have to go on the roof at this point, as we have zero room for more. Stacked 6' high, and a walkway to the electrical room, and a walkway to the main receiving door. That's all... Even our breakdown carts are out in the hallway, normally they are in the backroom with the freight. Yep... That's a filled up backroom alright.... The newly appointed store manager has not been allowed into our hiring system, yet... She is not happy about that. (Especially now that someone is quiting.) Of course, she is also unhappy about the truck bringing 209 cases today... Well, at least we will be busy!
Steve, is that cod from a weekend fishing trip? It's pretty good.... And the "sprinkles" are nice, if Vinnie can figure out what exactly that stuff is, he should get some more, and make this a regular menu item... It's pretty good. The "sprinkles" are what makes it though, other than the fine cooking of the crew in the kitchen, of course.
Well, since other's have covered breakfast and lunch, let me cover the dessert tab! Special for desert - In honor of the heat - Ice cream sundaes - all flavors.
Chloe, I will do a chocolate peanut butter sundae please. What? Oh, of course with real whipped cream on top. Please, and thank you.
Hope all are well, and have a good day night.

OK Bear! Way to go!!
The plane I saw obviously had to be the B-17 Sentimental Journey. Its rather unlikely that there would be two such beasts in the air.
I didn't notice the USAF insignia on the side but the plane was nearly directly overhead. All I got was a flash of blue on the tail.
I have to say that my ears pretty much told me what it was before my eyes did. The sound of the four big engines could only have been coming from a vintage aircraft. At first I thought it might be the Lancaster that flies out of the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton, Ontario, but the silver fuselage soon put the boots to that idea.
Thank you for taking the time to help me identify that beautiful aircraft. Very few people at the party I was attending even bothered to look up, and there I was with goose bumps from the sight and sound.
Take care!
Evening Dinners
Flo, Ed and I will have a please.
Sorry I have been MIA last few days. Looking for a car is a pain in the caboose! Plus my wife cannot understand why I have not bought one by now! She just not get it, you have to be carefull when you are buying a $3,000.00 used car! I am shocked at what people think you should pay for say a 2002 Dodge with a blown head gasket!
gmpullmanAre you confusing F6 on the throttle with CV6 in the decoder programming?
Ed How did you post the JMRI screen? I sure wish I could post what mine looks like! I swear there is no CV 6 showing on the CV page! In fact, your screen shows CV2 as 1. Mine reads CV2 as 32? I know I have not changed that CV. I do know what a F button is for, it is not a CV.
Either way I am tickled with the F7's, pull way better than I had hoped for. Some times sound engines are a little lite in the loafers because they weight less. Not these puppys!
YGW Sorry your back hurts from working. Far as the coal cars, I think most of them so far are older Round House cars. I have only found one Athearn so far. I have 8 of the last batch of coal cars up and out on the layout. I am cheating, I am replacing the Spung Trucks with Athearn trucks with Walters PK 2000 wheels. I am saving the sprung trucks till I find out how to make them free wheeling. If you would like them, let me know. The detail of them is lost to me with the way I run my railroad.
Time to look for a used car again, Ken

Morning?...
My Burlington Northern hoppers are taking a small detour from Kansas City to Dulles in Virginia. I don't know where they're going to next but I hope to their original destination. (It's like tracking a real freight car across the country.)
I hope you guys are doing okay since its going to the start of flu season.
Zoe, I'll have the #2 special, over easy eggs, homefries, bacon, and a double order of sourdough bread. Oh a pot of Seneca Lake Blend Dark Roast coffee would be nice as well....
A sunny day here in the Finger Lakes Region of NYS today. Today should get the total for the month of solar power up to what the month was last year, and tomorrow will put it up at the average for the total months of August so far (4 years).....
Today will mostly be put away stuff from the party and the meeting yesterday day. The lady that helped organize and put on the party will be stopping by this afternoon to pick up a few things she left here over the weekend. later I hope to get some more scenery done on the new area of the layout. Still waiting to hear about my order to Lappler Lumber.... Had hoped to get it before now. It is now alomst a month since I placed the order and they said I should expect it in 2 or three weeks.... Grrrrrrrrr! Can't finish uop the scenery un till I create the rest of the fence for the pastuer up there. Then I can finish thyat part and get the rest of the plywood in plce to do trackwork.
Have a great day out there!
Hello Railfans!
Top of the morning to ya! Bright, sunny, hot day on tap here (like I get any other kind ). Hope everybody is doing ok, best wishes to those who are not. Happy Birthday (belated for those who've past) to those who survived another year on this rock.
In general - Heres a computer tip for those who may wish to know. Ken, above, asked how to post a picture of his JMRI screen. For those who wish to capture what you see on your screens.... heres a few ways to do this. (since i cant ever get any railroading done i might as well share what else i know).
There are a few ways to do this. Yourself, or with a program. Lets start with the easy stuff - yourself. BTW, this is for Windows users. Im not even sure Apple products can take pictures, much less display them (jab jab).
First, take a look at your keyboard. Look for a key that says "Print Screen" or "Prt Scr" or "Prt Scn" for short. Pressing this key will take an instant 'snapshot' of whats on your screen. But where does it go? Pressing the key gives no indication anything has happened. But indeed it has, so dont be fooled and keep pressing it.
The screenshot is being held on the 'clipboard' which is nothing more than a fancy word for 'in memory' (a place in your puter you cant see per se). This is a temporary area for data to be stored. And right now, thats all your screenshot is.... temporary data. It needs to be saved. If you press the key again before saving the first shot/keypress.... your first shot will be lost and essentially replaced with the next consecutive shot.
To save screenshots you must start any Windows program that has "paste" ability. Naturally since we are working with a picture you would want to start the Microsoft 'Paint' program. Though your screenshot could just as easily be pasted into Word, Excel, Corel, Adobe, and the list goes on.
By pasting into Paint, or other graphics program, you get the ability of working with the picture before you save it. IE:cropping, coloring, editing, textwork, etc.
Once you get the program of choice running, simply 'paste' your screenshot into the program. Then save. Voila, its that simple. So, if we use Ken as an example..... heres the steps to go from screenshot to MR post:
1) get subject matter on screen.
2) press 'print screen' key.
3) paste into program like MS 'Paint'.
4) save picture as you would a normal paint picture.
5) upload to your favorite host (photobucket, etc).
6) post picture into MR thread as youve always done.
Its that simple.
Other methods include "Right-Clicking" on a screen object (such as a picture or highlighted text) and a small pop up menu will appear. Select 'copy'. Now paste it into a program as listed above.
Third party programs can be used to also capture screenshots. These programs are simple to use, yet give you more choices than the above built in 'Prt Scn' feature. For example, some programs will let you select the area of the screen you want to take a snapshot of, so you dont have to edit the picture before saving. Prt Scr just takes the whole display.
Some programs will give you the choice of menu picture (snapshot of a selected menu only), the master window (the main window on your screen that is above all others), the work area (everything in picture BUT menus), and the list goes on.
There are some programs that will even take the snapshot for you, save it, and upload it all in one click. By uplaod I mean upload to disgracebook, twitts, or other social media site. NO ONE to this day has figured out MR is a viable social site. So dont expect to get a program that will load pics here automatically.
Thats pretty much it. Simple huh? You should know this does not work for video. It will only take a snapshot of the frame being displayed at that time, not the video itself. And ofcourse, no snapshot program takes snapshots of sound, lol, so dont ask.
To get good snapshots from videos, Windows users should have Video LAN, or "VLC" as its commonly called. This is probably the best video player software in the world. Its free, open sourced, coded by actual programmers, and decades old. Its proven. And it has snapshot features built in. Along with MANY other usable features! It is not a desktop picture snapper. Its for videos. Prt Scn is your desktop snapper.
Bare in mind one thing - snapshotting is a powerful feature. It doesnt care what your taking a picture of. So, be mindful of copyrighted material. Website programmers have the ability to 'block' certain snapshot features like the 'right click' feature. They do this to protect their data. However, at all times.... the Prt Scr feature works no matter what. Its up to you to be respectful here.
Hope this helps those in need. Please tune in again next week for our installment on: Gas Powered Blenders and watermelon flavoured martinis, featuring guest host Gallegher.

Good afternoon, everybody ...
Here is a picture I took in AZ a couple of years ago. A UP local train with older GP units.
Garry,
This looks like the former Golden State Route (The surroundings and bland scenery give it away). Correct me If i'm wrong but the lead unit #1474 is a GP40M-2.
ATSFGuy Garry, This looks like the former Golden State Route (The surroundings and bland scenery give it away). Correct me If i'm wrong but the lead unit #1474 is a GP40M-2.
Yes ... The location is a few miles west of Casa Grande...
Flo, Ed and I will have a in a B&O F7 mug and give the Buick Guy a as well. Pss, Flo use my Hemi Rules mug.
Nothing really to talk about. Work was boring and Slooow, wound on my foot is looking good and the trains are being nice to me! Ed you have no idea how much I am enjoying the B&O F 7's!
Dennis Far as kind of car I am looking for, anything under $3500 that is not a POS! The 2002 Dodge I saw with the blowen head was $3000 and needs a hook to bring it home! Or a 2002 Olds, 112,000 miles for $1250. Needs new uni-hubs and has a dead miss on #4. Could be as simple as a new plug! Or coil pack, burnt vlave, flat cam, hole in the piston, bad springs and the list goes on and on!
Douglas Thanks for the tip and I will give it a try! Wish you made it to the dinner more often!
B&O Front
Ed still not sure what is up with the missing CV6 but BOY I love the F7's! Maybe be doing a hard re-set might be the way to go. Sometimes the decoders do not do what I want when I hit a F button. Some radom sounds like Dynatmic Brakes start working? Sometimes when I hit F-8 only one engine will mute? (Have mute a 35%) Still love them, what a great gift Santa! Beats the underware I got when I was 14 years old. What parnet in there right mind would give there 14 year old son underware for Christams?
YGW Have another B&O coal car on the rails! I am now working on getting a Sprung Truck on the rail with the orginal turck. The sprung trucks sure do twist unlike the current trucks used. I have no idea if that is good or bad, but sure is driffrent. I hope the Modler that did these cars is looking down from the great Round House in the sky with a on there face.
Time to look for a use car again, Ken
Hello Fellow Diners...
Ken! I see that ice-cold B&O mug already sitting on the counter! Nice touch!
When I first walked in here earlier this month I said that I probably wouldn't comment on the weather much. Strike that! This summer has been so hot, muggy and rainless that it deserves comment. Every time the learned experts predict rain it never materalizes! My pond is down about 18". Some folks around here are experiencing dry water wells!
yougottawantaAlso please set everyone up for whatever breakfaxt they want. panckes, steak and eggs, grits, scrapple, oatmeal ( yuck ) or whatever they want.
YGW, did I read that right? Scrapple=yummy and Oatmeal= yuck? Scrapple?
Yum, sure makes me want to grab a fork and dig in! Ponhaws is, roughly translated, Pan Rabbit.
Chloe, You can give my portion of scrapple to YGW, I'll settle for something without all those piggy parts in it. How about some eggs and sausage
Anybody remember the All In The Family episode where Archie refused to eat beef tongue? "I ain't eatin' anything that came out of a cow's mouth! Edith, make me some eggs!"
BigDaddyThe DCC board seems dead, no reset possible. It's the NCE basic board DA-SR in an old Atlas RS1.
Henry, I have had the same experience with the DA-SR decoders. I seem to recall getting a bulk pack (6 or maybe it was 10?) within a few months about half of them were toast. I couldn't find any information on how to do a factory reset on the silly things either. Finally ripped them all out. I don't think I have bought a NCE decoder since. I may still have a few engines with other NCE decoders but very few.
Reminder, NCE decoder reset is CV 30=2
I'm glad you are making some headway on those F units, Ken! Thanks to Douglas, PM Railfan's explanation of the old "print Screen" key. I use PhotoShop Elements 11 and there's a selection to "Open New Image From Clipboard" and the rest is basic editing.
A screen capture can be pretty handy if you want to copy, for your own use, an enlarged portion of a photo, print or text. Try it, you'll like it!
Maybe this will help you when the time comes to reset that QSI decoder (page 2)
http://www.nmra.org/sites/default/files/sr201402_dcc.pdf
Hope it helps, Ken!
I have been finally getting around to some projects that have been collecting dust in the work room for years.
Got a pair of NYC cabeeses painted finally. Don't they look like chocolate?
I didn't drill that huge hole by the left marker lamp bracket. A previous owner had attempted to wire lighted markers using grain-of-wheat bulbs with something like 18 gauge wire on them! Hopefully I'll be able to mount a marker lamp to cover the hole.
I managed to get some peeps into the first Broadway P70. I'm mostly using the "Wehonest" ebay (i.e. cheap!) figures. The portly guy with the red ball cap was pre-amputated from a Walthers/Preiser bus passenger set. I've got eight cars to populate and I really can't afford Preiser figures at about $2/head!
I think a few of the figures scale out bigger than HO so I'm just selecting the smaller ones.
Well, I've used up my share of WWW bandwidth for the day. I hope everyone is getting through the week in a safe, healthy and tolerable, if not, happy manner.
Prayers and good cheer to all who may be in need
Thanks for picking up the tab, DER!
Regards, Ed
