Great, Bergie let you back? That's great! Now I wish I had more trains to talk about...
I am suposed to be at school today, but since musical theatre is off today becasue of the show, I got to sleep in, and then I decided not to go to physics and english. Why? Because in physics, I have a pretty good understanding of what's going on, and 2 private free tutors. My parents! My dad has a PhD in physics, and my mum has a lesser university degree. Sweet, eh?
Does anybody else here have Limewire? And how's the weather?

Oy. Make the title the same please Matt. Alstom, i think it would be good if you kept your old username. A fresh start you might say.

My weather is fairly good, considering winter. The snow is at that stage where it is harder and it breaks when you step on it. We did get a snow storm last night, and at my bus stop, it was really, really slick!!! It dried up by the time I got home though and the sun peaked out for a while! Good enough for railfanning this weekend!

And Alec, you mean my "CSX 4685" screen name? Because if you do, I only had 35 posts, and besides, Bergie let me back in this screen name.

[oscaletrains]

thanks every one that told me about the snow plow. but a new question for a new form how much snow does it take to get the snow plows out ???? how much snow can the train's loco take, and how does it affect the loco and load the other thing is my dog tipped over the christmas train so much for my dog's being "interasted" in my trains any one know about the baltamore and ohio it's my favroite road but i dont know it all. oh and the wether is great here i saw the snows comming back to michagan!!!!!!!!!! i only have two more days of school before christmas break!!!![:)] during christmas break im going to be in the snow or with my trains or on here all i asked for this year was train stuff [:D][:D] and thats all i want! thats what i told my parents. did you know that port huron (thats where i live) is the childhood home of thomas edison he worked on the grand trunck western railway so now we have a depot in his honer i can get some pictures on here of it it"s got a combine car at the depot then down town we have another depot there repairing. i wonder if any one will find the new form

[trainboyH16-44]

It takes only a couple inches above the railhead or some drifts to get the wedge plows out. I think the rule is that if there is more than 3 inches over the railhead on our line, trains must stop, but they can take out pretty big drifts. Not a big B&O buff, unfortunately.
I've changed the name! And I think Richard should stay as Alstom for now.

In response to the below post, the posts are how people get to know you, and if you lose them then you have to reuild it. And good luck!

"I only had 35 posts"

Alec

[oscaletrains]

luck to ya and get well by the way how do you edit your screen name, do you think that they will let on 4-8-4up northern? its interesting, having a new form. and by the way does any one know about the british "flying scotsman" train

[wctransfer]

Dont know about the Briti***rain, and no he is gone forever. You cant edit a screen name, you just have to create one.

oscaletrains: Eric (4-8-4 UP Northern) has been on here 3 or 4 times. He is my friend so I won't comment on him, but I will say he has had more than enough chances. (also, why don't you update you profile?)

Alec: You can call me Richard, ya know? That wasn't the point I was trying to make with 35 posts. What I truly mean't was that people don't know me as well as CSX 4685. Plus, that account has been locked, don't know why.

Chris: You joining our "new" place? Not being rude that yours was locked.

Dock_661: Congrats in advance for your 50th post! Don't know why I wanted to mention that.

Yes, I am afraid that Eric couldn't learn to show a little respect and humility. But let's not let this turn into another discussion about him. That is one of the reasoons Bergie locked the old place.

And that is exactly what I was trying to say in my last post. I bet it was locked becasue bergie thought that you only needed one.

So here it has started to snow, which is good because I'm dreaming of a wite christmas!

[alstom]
