Ahhhhhh but i do have a picturw of me and beside who else but me would have a room will a pic of me in it? But i am not lying this time, these are all mine on my layout

[jguess733]

We don't know what you look like. How do we know the person in the pictures is really you? How do we know that the trains are REALLY yours and not your fathers?

[NeO6874]

or perhaps his friend's?

[jeffrey-wimberly]

With 18" radius you don't need a Challenger or Big Boy. While the locos will take the turns (looking as comical as a Laurel and Hardy routine while they do it) the tenders will definitely have issues. Check out Cudaken's thread titled "Genesis Big Boy tender rolls like a brick".

OK, ok, ok. Just one question, How did you get the negitive posts? That's the first time I've seen them.

[unionpacificchuck]

[selector]

 

...i am not lying this time i swear i am not..

Question is, when will we know you have stopped?  Hmmmm?

[loathar]

wow i didn't notice that hmmmmmmmmm i don't know

I guess you didn't read your last thread where your neg post count was mentioned 2 or 3 times then.

[AggroJones]

This should be good...

[tstage]

But i am not lying this time, these are all mine on my layout

So you freely admit that you were lying the other times.  Why should we expect anything different this time?...

[jeffrey-wimberly]

This old Indian says: Me no'um see pics yet. Me not believe'um poster with forked tongue.

[Hoople]

MARK IS IN DA HOUSE!

[NYCentral1]

So....where's the pictures then?  Are we not up to 100 posts/requests yet?

Seems like a lot of talk, but no action...

This is ridiculous, are we dealing with a child here?  How old are you anyway?

[jeffrey-wimberly]

Probably 10.

[R. T. POTEET]

I'll bite this time 

 

... whats your question....?

There are a number of potential questions in unionpacificchuck's topic:

How many periods, commas, question marks, etc., etc. did I leave out of this post?; and

shouldn't "fake" have had an "l" in it?

[R. T. POTEET]

I have 150 + bucks what new engine should i get?

I have 18 radi turns

4x6 layout

HO scale

Okay, unionpacificchuck, you got your question in; now I have a reciprical question for you: Do you know how to use the word "ridiculous" in a sentence?

Think about this: you have a 4 X 6 layout and you are going to squeeze 18 inch RADII curves onto this platform.  Now, as an N Scaler I would have no problems with 18 inch radius curves; they scale out to 33 inch radius in HO Scale which is, by anybody's standard, a broad curve.  Eighteen inches in HO Scale scales out to 9.8 inches in N Scale; on any of my layouts that tight a radius would only be found on industrial trackage; in fact, you would be hard pressed to have found radii short of 12 inches on any of my last couple of layouts all of which were built on four foot wide platforms.

Your topic post indicated that you have a Big Boy and a Challenger on the way; I can understand how, if you are a Onion Specific modeler, your interest will automatically be drawn to Big Boys and Challengers.  Fine! I am interested in Appalachian crossing railroads and my interest is, therefore, naturally drawn to B&O EM1s, and C&O Alleghenies as well as DM&IR Class M3/M4s none of which are currently available at affordable prices for my budget.  Were that situation to change I am sure I would acquire a handful of these - this would have the effect of relocating me from "now" to the 'mid-50s" but I intend my next/future layout to have 21.5 inch radius curves.  That scales out to 39.5 inches in HO Scale, curves broad enough to handle Big Boys and Challengers without looking blatantly "ridiculous" doing it which is exactly what they are going to look like on 18 inch radius curves.

Your question addresses the purchase of a locomotive with the $150.00 plus burning a hole in your jeans' pocket; I'll answer by saying this: the rapidly growing trite bromide says that it is your railroad and you can do as you wish with it but I don't think I would order any more Big Boys or Challengers.

I have a strange feeling that Allan Funt is about to come out from behind a curtain and show me all of the hidden camera's.

I've been reading UP Chuck's posts for the past week or so. 

He posts to get your reaction / attention.  So every time you reply to one of his posts you're giving him exactly what he wants.

If you really want to keep him from posting then stop responding to his posts.  It's as simple as that!

Bill 

I don't care why chuck is putting up posts; if he wants attention from me he is going to get it even if it is with the flat of my blade applied to his backside!

[alco_fan]

Indeed. Since he has already said ...

Custom cab foreward.................looks cool huh? Thats good for a 12 year old

.. either he is a twelve year old who's been making you all dance to his tune, or he's a middle-aged geek pretending to be a 12 year old making you all dance to his tune. Hard to say which is worse.

if you keep picking at it, it's never going to heal (leave).
