Would it be appropriate to add Jim Wrinn to the RIP track?

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!

This forum has had several notices on the death of editor Jim Wrinn.
This was emailed out to members of the UP Steam Club. It was nice of UP Steam Club to notify their membership:

York1Oh, great! Now I have to write eight checks instead of one.
I just paid the IRS using Bitcoin. So far so good, I haven't heard any complaints from them in two weeks!
The Diner is on the move...

BroadwayLionIRS will not accep a check for or over 100,000,000.00. So you will have to use two or more checks if you fall in this tax bracket.
Oh, great! Now I have to write eight checks instead of one. Each check costs 29¢. Now I'm really wasting my money.
Who can I talk to about this?

LION does not pay taxes. LION does not get paid.
But LION just read that youse other guys such as need to pay the IRS mone than one hundred million dollars must use more than one check.

This is great!
We got one Florida post from a person who lives in Florida before the diner moves.
I'm happy this has all straightened out.
Living the dream.
TF, I also haven't had any issues with logging in, posting, photos, etc.
However, I'm not using a phone like you. I use a laptop.
At least once a week, I use the Windows tool Disc Cleanup and System Cleanup. It only takes a few seconds, and I think that doing that helps avoid some issues on a computer. It clears everything out. Of course, if you saved passwords in Windows, they are also gone.
I don't use Windows to save passwords. I have a password program that I only need to remember one password, and then it provides passwords for any site I go to. I love it.
Good luck with your phone issues. I'm sure Lion is on the right track since he's up on all the computer systems.
Track fiddlerLately my screen flutters and shifts to different frames when I'm trying to post making it awfully hard to do. When switching tabs to retrieve a picture, frequently everything in the prior tab flashes and disappears into Oblivion. I don't know, but it's getting rather difficult lately.
LION has no difugulities... ergo nothing to sea here!
Problem is that site is old and uses old teknowlegies that modern systems no longer support.
Yeah, I have modernest system a round. go figger.
Problem is if theys go to gnu form hardware we loose all wes got and gott atart from over.
Good morning. Bacon, eggs, and black coffee, please.
I had to walk in the field house this morning. Like David's area, last night, it rained, then snowed. The result was a lot of ice, so I decided not to try the trail this morning. The sun is out, and the ice is beginning to melt. I think the snow will all be gone by afternoon.
Goodbye to Florida! I love the state and will miss it.
Now I want cherry pie Lion (And good morning btw)
You can have pie for breakfast right? I mean it's healthy...fruit, grains, milk...

I like the thought of a stockyards themed April. My layout will feature a Santa Fe branch that was built to haul livestock from rural Texas to Ft. Worth. I have close to 30 Intermountain stock cars ready to go.
Lion: Cherry pie is the best.
Well, Besides the 403's I get this site is getting awfully glitchy with my phone. Perhaps a software compatibility issue caused by updates, I don't know.
Besides the occasional thread that's deleted I come to the site and can't find a thread I darn well know has to still be there. Switching to a different mode and coming back to the site, there it is again.

P.S. Cherry pie looks good. The only Jam Judy buys is Smuckers Cherry preserves as I have something to do with that.

Yes Eric.

A favorite place of mine especially in Wintertime.

David, is this the place you described? I am unable to copy and paste the actual google map picture, but this is the link.

ps - Everone please enjoy breakfast on me before we hit the stockyards
The picture you painted with words made the snowy river scene sound like really something to see David. Images from a camera don't do any justice capturing those rare life experiences when everything gels. When given one of those, one just has to live the moment
gmpullman I like your idea, Dave, although I'll be perplexed as the very first stockyard I've ever seen was while on vacation (holiday) in 1966 when my dad and I traveled west to the Rio Grande narrow gauge country and spent a night in a little "motor cabin" just down the road from the Omaha Stock Yards. Omaha_Stockyard by Edmund, on Flickr I see two of my favorite breeds there... Filet and Mignon (no offense to the vegans out there ) No worries, though, I'll post in both April AND May Diners. Attuvian1 No doubt some of them will go waaay back. Hey! I represent that comment! You have my vote! Cheers, Ed

Hi Dave. The magic of Wintertime.
Snow has fallen overnight. Store owners are clearing their part of the path outside as I walk down High Street in Inverness.
The bridge over the River Ness is ahead. I do not cross. Instead I turn left and walk. The river on my right, the castle to my left.
I stop and look at the river. It is wide and shallow. The sun shines. Hundreds of small patches of snow sail down the river. A river of 'diamonds glinting in the morning sunlight'.
Magical!!
NorthBritStockyards in April. Trains seen on vacation in May. I go along with that.
Hi David,
Personally I'd much rather go on vacation in May rather than April. The weather in April is far too unpredictable for me to venture outside of my four walls and the train room.
Cheers!!
Good morning Diners. It is snowing. A large coffee to go with a bowl of porridge please, Brunhilda.

Thoughts and Peace to All who Require.
John and Ed,
Thanks for your input!
I have never personally been to a stock yard, or even a cattle ranch for that matter. The sheer logistics of keeping them all fed and watered boggles my mind. That also applies to the task of cleaning up their prodigious output!
Attuvian1No doubt some of them will go waaay back.
hon30critter I eagerly await your responses. Cheers!! Dave
I eagerly await your responses.
Good morning everyone!
Further to the debate about where the Diner should be located for April, if my count is correct, we have a total of eight votes, three for holiday trains and five for stockyards. Therefore, given that they are both good suggestions, I propose that we use them both. We can do the stockyards in the month of April (seems fitting for April 1st), and then we can go on the holiday trains in May. How does that sound?
Man my weather radio is going crazy right now.
Lots of severe stuff around.
