QUOTE: Originally posted by cjm89 Bergie: I agree with Noah H., you should post the same thing on the MR forum. It can get a little insulting on some of the posts there as well. There were a few threads about David Barrow's layout in MR Planning that got pretty heated between a coupler of people, not to the point you'd have to censor the posts-but insults are definently not needed on forums made by Kalmbach, especially when we are all interested in the same hobby.

QUOTE: Originally posted by Stelli And didn't this all start with Bergie's explanation of why a previous thread was killed when it got way too long and out of hand with bad-mouth, off-topic stuff? Pizza... Let's talk pizza places near the railroad. Been to Famous Ray's in the basement of Newark Penn Station. (That's in New Jersey, for you West Coasters). Excellent stuff, you stand at a table, elbow to elbow, with the rumble of arriving/departing trains overhead. And to get there, you darn near have to trip over the homeless folks. Also been to Gatto's Pizza in Cheney, Washington. (That's in eastern Washington, not Washington D.C., and certainly not Washington STATE either, for you East Coasters.) Booths and open tables at the window have a clear view of BNSF and UP main lines, plus the lead track for the Palouse River & Coulee City's CW branch just a stone's throw away. You could snap a perfect train photo right through the window. Bar service, too. And finally, to stir the pot again and get this thread on its way toward deletion for sure, I suggest anyone who still has questions about Ron Brown's plane crash and its connection (as well as the documented connections of at least 40 other deaths) to Bill Clinton, go on down to the nearest Barnes & Noble, head for the Current Affairs section, and you'll find a nice new book on the subject.

QUOTE: Originally posted by Stelli Right! Go one step further and figure out a way to cater to the passing train crews. Not sure how a pizza would survive being hooped up by a passing train trainorders-style. I remember hearing of some trackside eatery serving UP crews that way, Wyoming I think. Anyway, crews would phone or radio their order ahead, and pull up slowly to a window-level shelf for the rollby pick-up. Not sure how they paid...in advance with credit card or a company voucher maybe. Yes, a trackside pizza place with a full-blown RR theme would be neat. Gotta make its money off the non-railfan crowd too, but sure couldn't hurt to attract our special breed of customer.
