Sigh [sigh]

Goodness gracious, Norman. You join this group only last May 2 and somehow have such an excellent perspective on Futuremodal's contributions to long-past discussions. Dave (FM) hasn't posted here since last August, which lends credence to the theory his forum privileges were withdrawn.

Hmmmmmm. Confused [%-)]

PS - I also notice we still have self-appointed moderators urging this thread to move along. As Sophicles once said: "If you don't like, take a hike." (That's Spiro Sophicles, who runs the Greek deli down the street)   

I love the smell of coal smoke in the morning! I am allergic to people who think they are funny, but are not. No, we can't. Or shouldn't, anyway.

Well, she certainly would not declare it an Ad Hominem like moderators on other sites do, and immediately lock it.

Shhhhh

It did make a comeback, all those Dash-9's are really USRA 2-8-0's in disguise.

But it's a secret so don't tell anybody. Blindfold [X-)]

i waved at a young couple ingaged in shall we say "carnal activies" trackside tonight.. they didnt wave back..or at least from what i was able to tell through the tinted windows of the car... dose that count as my wave for the day?

csx engineer 

If nobody saw you wave, then it isnt a wave. Now your going to have to wave twice to make up for it Laugh [(-D]

Ill get my wave in to a passing train today, friend of mine is the conductor and ill get a bottle of water in return. I always tell him that when he "drops" the water bottle to me, not to do it overhand cause it might hurt if im not ready.
