So now we have gone from the Sublime to the Ridiculous.
There might be a layout name in that!

Careful guys!!! At some point in time in the near future there will be an activist movement. It started with all the spagetti that was sacrificed in lousy layout designs and is gaining momentum with the bread being martyred in the "search" for the proper toaster settings.......

Yes I saw her at the grocery store, in the bread aisle, couldn't decide whether she needed wheat, rye, white, raisin, or pumpernickel to celebrate the new Year with LOL!

Brakie,
I think it's 2, maybe 3.On my toaster 8 to 10 will provide a piece of toast as hard as a brick!

Maybe I'll put a "Hobo" campfire scene on my own layout.I wonder where I can find or make a small plastic bread wrapper bag, remeber "Wonder Bread" from the Howdy Doody " show days?
Should be fun printing up a 1/87 scale bread bag with "Wonder Bread" on it and the Red, Yellow and Blue Dots on it. Maybe one of my Hobos will look like Howdy Doody and another like "Buffalo Bob"
Hmmmm, "Wonder Toast" maybe even do up a "Wonder Bread" boxcar!What a "Toasty" idea!
NORAD UPDATE-- Dateline Jan 1, 2008
It has been determined that "DARK TOASTER" failed to properly brake his rate of descent just past the moon, his Galactic Railway Gandy dancer must have still been malfunctioning, and with the combined graviational pull of the moon and the earth, he was thrown back out past earth and is now reportedly headed for Mars!
Maybe he'll start the first galactic railway link onto Mars
People not far from TIMES SQUARE reported a bright objct in the sky and an observatory reported some jerk on a Galactic Gandy Dancer whizzing past the aerth, narrowly missing the International Space Station.The astronaut and cosmonauts on the space station said they could see a guy dressed in a dark long toast type coat, and a strange toaster helmet mask shaking his fists as he sped by!!!
So a disruption of New Years Festivities has been avoided!It was reported that Luke Slicewalker and Han Solotaost went outside at the New Years party they were attending, and lifted their drink glasses to the sky and wished "DARK TOASTER" a long Solar journey and back out into the galaxy.One astronoer said he thinks DARK TOAST will soon be chasing close behind Halley's Comet, so he shouldn't be back around for close to 60 plus years.
May we all raise our glasses to a toast of the New Year 2008 and lots of GREAT MRR'ing ahead!
Does anyone here like burnt toast? We had a crumby, cheap toaster when I was a kid. It burnt toast if you were not carful. We had to scrape the black stuff off into to trash before eating it. It took a while before I acquired a taste for toast in later years.
I'll have to make a scene on the model railraod layout of somebody scraping burnt toast. It may or may not be realistic, but the thought of doing that keeps this thread on topic. [ quote ]
Maybe a "Hobo's campfire" with one of the "crusty" bums scraping his burnt toast off! LOL!

Dateline NORAD-- Decemebr 31st2348 hours,--"DARK TOASTER " spotted rounding the far side of the moon, earthward bound! Speculated landing point is TIMES SQUARE!!
Band together fellow forum members and let's DERAIL this culprit!!!
In our last episode" DARK TOASTER" was sidetracked on a galactic siding, his Gandy dancer was experiencing technical problems, and he was left way out there , somewhere far far away in the galaxy, Luke Slicewalker, Han Solotaost, Wookietoaster, and the princess had all returned to earth for HUGE Christmas Party, BUT...... It is now New Years Eve, and NORAD has picked up a strange object moving towards earth, can't be Santa Toast, because he's back at the Magic Toast Castle at the North Toastem Pole.What is this strange object moving towards earth?.Special intel satellites are picking up some mumbling and grumbling, something about "I'll show them what TEN TOASTERS looks like!!! Followed by a deep gravelly laugh!The latest satellite intel indicates this object or thing, or person seems to be moving towards TIMES SQUARE!!!What willhappen at the stroke of midninght????
Stay tuned for the next exciting episode in the Galactic Toast Wars!
Anybody seen DARK TOAST hanging around anywhere?
In the last episode he was sidetracked somewhere, geeeeessshhh hate to leave him hanging, least I could do is run him over with a Galactic 2-10-2 Hot Toast Express! Have to figure it out later, the Boss says she has dinner ready, Creamed Tuna over Toast at the K4Kid Cafe
Gotta go, see y'all later!
MAY THE TOAST BE WITH YOU!
That's cool!

Everyone report to Elliots Trackside Diner, I'm buying the toast this morning!
It's due in on the next PRR excursion train, a whole boxcar load of it!
Hope everyne had as great of a Christmas as I did!
And may we all raise our glasses and whatever we are drinking to a "VERY REAL" and "SINCERE TOAST" to those serving overseas and or far from home this Christmas Holiday.May we as a whole group of MRR's express our sincere thanks to those who protect our freedomand thoose who have sacrificed for us.May we win this conflict in the middle east with VICTORY, DIGNITY, and an HONORABLE PEACE, and may everyone come home safe to their loved ones!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Here's a "TOAST" to everyone having a Merry Christmas !and a Happy MRRing holiday!May Santa bring you a lot of neat train stuff, or greenbacks or gift certificates to get more neat train stuff! We can NEVER have enough train stuff! LOL!By the way, remember to leave Santa some milk and cookies, I think he's had enough toast this Christmas season!
For those of us in the colder northern climate, may we all stay "toasty" warm, and happy! Well it's time to go make some lunch!What else but CHEESE TOASTIES!!!!
Guess It's time to change gauge!
My good old HOj toaster was designed to handle thick, square slices of bread, standard in Japan. It easily handled the thinner, smaller standard American white bread.
Now my resident kitchen technology addict has gone and bought one of those do-it-yourself bread machines! The resultant slices are WAY too big.
Looks like I'll have to find an On30 toaster - or start eating untoasted bread.
Merry Christmas, everybody.
When we last left our heroes, they were in a desperate race to reach the Starsship "Boobyprize" and latch onto it and tow it or get it's reactors up to power so everyone could head for mother earth to enjoy the world wide Christmas Holiday.Luke Slicewalker finds that Princess Wheatbread had been stowed stealthily away on the space freighter , Millenium Toaster" and helped him to clean out the ash bins, avoiding reaching critical mass dangers.Now with Princess Wheatbread standing by his side, Luke Slicewalker, Han Solotaost, Wookietoast, C-3POtoast and R2-D2toast race for the Starship Boobyprize and are closing fast!!!Then they hear a voice "May the Toast be with you!Han turns to Luke, and also eyeballing Princess Wheattoast, says Luke, that voice keeps sounding off, but so far hasn't done anything for us.And how are we going to deal with the Deathtoast star?"Just then as the Millenium Toaster streaks at "Steam Warp 7" along the galactic rail line, the voice is heard again.
Han, Luke, Princess, "You must beleive in the Toast! Now look out your port windows.Han, Luke, and the Princess turn to look , and what is this they see, but a Sleigh with nine tiny reindeer pulling it and the one up front has a strangely glowing red nose, and a white bearded man all dressed in red with white with a a huge white bag behind him in the sleigh.Han says, this must be a mirage, or the effects of steam warp 7.The bearded man looks over from his sleigh and says "HO HO HO, you just run with me until we get near the Deathtoaststar, and watch how we handle it!"The two vehicles race along side by side, stars, moons, planets, whizzing by!!!!
Soon a huge dark objectlooms up ahead, the Deathtoaststar!A toastbeam emerges from it and tries to lock on to the sleigh and the Millenium Toaster, but suddenly a strange red beam emits from the nose of the small lead reindeer, locks onto the Deathtoaststar, and the bearded white man laughs , and says "HO HO HO, Merry last Christmas to you Deathtoaststar, then he yells Give it to them Rudolph, and the red beam intensifies, and suddenly the Deathtoaststar explodes into oblivion!HO HO HO, you bad guys won't be messing up any more little boys and girls Christmas's anymore!!"Come on Luke, Han and Princess, let's go help the Starship Boobyprize make it back to earth for Christmas, because I have a terribly busy delivery schedule ahead of me!!!"Han says to himself, I gotta stop stopping off at those galactic railside cafes, and drinking the Milky Way shakes they have, I think they are making me hallucinate!!!
I'm seeing a man in a sleigh with a reindeer with some sort of super laser ray beam.
Santa looks over and laughs and says "No Han, that's Rudolphs new super particle beam and GPS guidance system we use now,HO HO HO!!!Soon they arrive at the Starship Boobyprize, and Santa makes a quick visit to everyone onboard, and delivers Christmas present.Then the Millenium Toaster hooks onto and tows the Boobyprize back into earth orbit, and everyone "beams down" to earth, and Han and Luke land the Millenium Toaster on earth.
The crews of both ships, have a Merry Christmas party, and as the moon softly illuminates the snow covered countryside, they hear the distant steam whistle of Pennsylvania Railroad Christmas Eve excursion train.And just as the whistle dies out, they hear sleighbells and a voice from the sky saying "HO HO HO, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!"
And so ends the adventures of our heroes!
Tune in next year to see what's happening!
Merry Christmas everyone!!!
Hang in there Garry, I'm working on the next "Toast Chapter" Almost thought the Klingons or Dark Toast may have caome in the night and taken howmus's toaster, but guess he found it! LOL!

Happy Winter! Sorry, we were feeling a tad cold hearted.
No more descrimination. We will no longer judge those who are circular and those who are rectangular. We are now a fully functioning society!
Thank you!

The smoke wasn't realistic , it was magic smoke! Well at least the toaster wasn't made by bose!
