That means for a while the infamous "humor" thread will be #1 (in quantity at least. (as if that reallymeans anything...).
However, it will not be long until DD&CS 2.0 surpasses the humor thread once again .

So long, Depot Diner and Coffee Shop. At least we have a new location, and I think the guys have dismantled all the train layouts, the juke box, the CD player, speakers, etc. Just taking a final look around to make sure everything is unplugged, dismantled, packed up, etc., before I turn off the lights and close and lock up this place that was never closed.
Jim, thank you for opening the very fine establishment almost two years ago. I think everyone has had a fantastic time in here, and I know we'll continue to have a fantastic time in our new DD & CS.
....We shall move over to the new.....Like fresh new things.

Good bye, fare well, it's sad to see you goooooooo.
I have honored Trains.com's request and have started a new coffee shop. Please go ahead and say your goodbyes here then begin posting in the new DD & CS. They will probally lock or delete this shop within a few days. Yes, it will be sad to see it go, but we can all meet in the new one. I am thankful for the many new friends I have meet here at trains.com and the coffee shop. I will see everyone in the new shop.
Goodbye for now.
Love yall.

Well, YES! Actually we did a "remodel" a while back, but it never hurts to upgrade!
Finally getting some snow. I was lazy yesterday and didn't run in to the home center for a little more mulch so I could finish the front of the house. Think I'll stick close to home today, too....
And speaking of new diners, the all new DD&CS is now open. We'll see you all over there!

Good Saturday morning, everyone! Looks like I'm not the only one running late this morning. Oh well, that happens sometimes, doesn't it?
Coffee is now ready, juice is made, and there is hot chocolate and hot tea.
On the breakfast bar this morning, you will find: turkey bacon, sausage patties and sausage links, sausage gravy, homemade buttermilk biscuits, oatmeal, grits, cream of wheat, toast, pineapple chunks, apples, pears, bananas, pancakes, waffles and bagals.
We've got a current temp of 40 degrees this morning, and the rain isn't supposed to come in until later this afternoon, early evening. Hope all our friends in the Denver area are managing o.k.; mudchicken is probably still shoveling, although I hope he took a break to rest up and get some sleep.

I thought this thread might have got the same treatment...the CS over at MR is being closed for the same reasons...Oh well...
I like DD&CS 2007, has a nice ring to it

Wow, never knew a thread could get big enough to overwhelm a server...
Anyhow, have some fish ready for me, I'll be passing through quick as I'm first out...
I'll try to be back by New Years Eve...

I bet having your own private island might be appealing about now to people in Colorado.

Kozzie is away from his computer until 1/2/07 at which time he will probably surface...
Okay, everybody, I'll call JHH tomorrow, before he goes to work, and see if he would honor us in starting the new DD/CS 2007 thread, or whatever he wants to call it. Whatever he suggests, I'll handle it, if he doesn't have the time to drop in to start the new thread. I know he's been very, very busy at work, and hasn't had time to get on the computer.
On the FRIDAY FISH FRY menu for tonight: cod, halibut and perch, w/fries, hushpuppies, corn on the cob, slaw, and for dessert: pecan pie, apple pie, peach pie and cherry pie.
Have to make sure that the old one gets locked, or it'll get dredged up from time to time....
Maybe it can be preserved as a separate web page so it can be deleted from the forum. That would help with the space issues.
My vote is for Jim to open the Newly Remodelled DD&CS 2007. Maybe we can make it an annual event, just to keep the cobwebs cleared out.
Or perhaps we could go with the youngest member (Willy2?) Or maybe jhh would make another guest appearance. Or maybe we could have a vote!
EDIT: Upon further thought, a vote at this time would probably not be a good idea - too many people are already gone for the holidays.

Considering disk space limitations and system performance issues, I now wonder just how long they will let this particular forum grow before they decide that they need to do some pruning and trash removal.
I like your idea for the new name, Brian.

Darn, and I thought we'd make 1000 pages and/or 20,000 posts. So what shall we call the replacement DD&CS? How about Depot Diner & Coffee Shop 2007?
Hope Mama has gotten home so Joe can go to sleep. The first round of fish/fries and sides are ready, and there is still some breakfast left on the warmer bar for our west coast friends.
We're getting ready to leave for the airport in a bit to meet Sarah. See everyone this evening.
