Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!

Requests for Farm and life in the country:

This may qualify. Every Fall we go to our Mt Cabin to get a deer. To while a way the time we play cards and have one or two . A good thing we do too as we haven't seen a deer in several years.
