I got this fabulous blanket from my wife she made it herself. She also got me a few more hat pins. Due to a large christmas bonus I will be insulating my trainroom and adding an A/C and heat unit.

A 40' Reefer car - Pacific Fruit Express (with Southern Pacific roadname on one side and UP on the other)

That's it for rail stuff, but the £10 cheque will go towards scenic materials!

1 Kato SD-40-2 NS
1 Walthers 3 pack TTX well cars
1 Walthers single TTX well car
1 Con-cor bi-level auto rack
4 Walthers Intermodal containers, asst names.
Few sets of RTR LL trees (yes I know...they make up a small park scene im doing)
7 structures or so

Thats about it. I also got a 1996 Dakota that was about 5000 from my step dad because the Ranger I was driving died. His idea was like 500 for some train stuff...the truck didnt come into the picture until he took out a loan for a refurb on his boat and gave me what he had left when the trucks (Ranger) entire fuel system rotted out right in the driveway over 2 days it seems. Other than that my Nana and gf funded like half of the list and yes there are some train things I forgot. This is all N scale btw. And hi to everyone...guess im kinda new here.

And I got lots of other goodies too, including some NH models, a Walthers oil co. kit, and more cool stuff.

I got a day to myself...my girlfreind is at work, so we're celebrating tomorrow, with my family...most of the women in my family are nurses..so we're used to re-scheduling holidays around their work schedules..it was a peaceful day here in my world...and honestly, all I really WANT is a new pair of shoes and a job, (in that order)..seriously

lessee, I got: Not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR railroad books from my sister (the one I figured would get me some cars from the wrong era). She is really starting to like the model railroading hobby and is amazed at how much history of the world is connected to the railroads. Anyway she found these gems.

Makin' Tracks - The Story of the Transcontinental Railroad

Yonder Comes the Trains - The Story of the Iron Horse ( with some great photos)

Early Railroads by J. B. Snell

Pictoral History of Trains

My Son in the windy city found a print (beautifully framed) of a train coming around the curve at Glass Factory Bluff and the Country Club at Geneva, NY (where I live) It is I think a print of a painting. Hard to tell but I would guess a NYC Hudson pulling a consist of passenger cars sometime in the 1940's.

And! My other son gave me a Micro Mark Magneting assembly jig and some micro drills that can be used in the dremel moto tool.

All this and other stuff too. I think Santa was very good to me this year. Much more fun for me though is the giving of gifts of love to my family this season and all year long. Long live Nicholas, Bishop of Smyrna! Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukka, Happy Kwanza, and blessings to all people of good will around the world!
