Default Good morning this last day of March

Hey, welcome to the caboose. Grab a cup of coffee, we have both kinds, regular and hi-test. Mikey's gunna drop by with the donuts, if he gets up early enough. In the meantime, there's a few bagels left over from yesterday, help yourself.

Not much else going on, we're just trying out our new forum, sitting around the caboose waiting for the early crew to get here. Have a great day.

Good morning folks

A Friday and we have great weather, now how rare is that? Temperature is supposed to reach 72 F today with no clouds in the sky. It should be a good evening for my daughter’s first softball practice. The clouds will move into night and give us some rain over the weekend.

I finished numbering the Atlas ARHS hoppers last night. I now need to seal them. I also began measuring and fitting some things into and around the stream area near the cement distributor. I now have a good idea how I am going to start things.

Mikey, I am still holding out some hope that we can go to the East Coast Large Scale Train Show on Sunday. I will try to let you know after my daughter’s concert Saturday night.

I hope everybody has a good day.

Geez, based on the number of posts shown for each member in this thread there are really some old F---ts on here

I guess since I'm one as well it would seem okay for me to post here from time to time as well, but sourcreme doughnuts how about something jelly filled

Some new hire named Homer something-or-other had it brought in. He also took all the cream donuts. Said something about warming them up in the nucular reactor... Oh well, it's back to the Quickie Mart for some more.

The night shift has arrived. Washed the coffee pot, polished it inside and out with Brasso and put it in the cupboard.
No donuts left, but the roll-up-the-rim cup someone left got me a Tim Hortons share.
Guess tomorrow I bring my own dutchy.

You know, I've had a few cups of coffee in the Army that tasted like the mess sergeant might well have cleaned the inside of the coffee pot with Brasso

Guess I'll just have to wait until I smell a fresh pot brewing and then I might drop in for a spell.

I'm so glad we have a caboose, but what kind is it? Wooden, Steel? Bay Window, Widevision, Cupola, M of W, or transfer?

It's blue.......

Remember that song: "One piece at a time"?? - Where the car was all parts of all different car model years?

.................. You're there!!!...... It's a 23,34,45, 55,65,76,87,98. C&O, PRR, WM,KT,D&H, IC, etc......

....... She's a Wooden, Steel, Bay Window, Widevision, Cupola, M of W, and transfer....

The caboose/cabin looks different on the outside to every member of The Gauge.....

........But inside, she's blue & white nice & cozy, not to hot, not too cold. And she's all ours, paid in full... For us to enjoy.........
