How trains are better than women...

[McFortner]

Saturday we got joking at the LHS about how trains are better than women (or men). Here are some of the ones of mine I could remember:

Trains don't care if you turn them on, give them a quick run, then go to sleep.

Trains don't nag you to re-arrange the room.

Trains don't care if you come home with a new engine.

Trains don't have a fit if you play with other trains.

Trains don't have a fit if you spend $300 for a new engine.

Trains don't mind if you share them with friends.

Trains don't care if you never take them anywhere.

Trains don't yell at you if you come home late and did not call first.

Trains don't worry if all you do is run them in circles.

Trains never ask, "Does this make my caboose look big?"

Trains never splend $1000 on the Home Shopping Network for clothes.

Any additions?

ROTFLMAO. My side hurts. Got to go to another thread for a bit of Tysons sippin' stuff

 

[Railery]

Sounds like someone is in the doghouse.

 

[acshrpe]

ROFLMAO Hubby has tears running down his cheeks

Sounds like your club members have too much time on their hands

 

[spitfire]

OMG that is toooooo funny!


Can't resist something for the girls' side - why model trains are better than men:

If a model is a loco - that's a good thing.

If a train is switching - ditto

If you ask them to run into town they don't complain "But I was just there!"

It doesn't matter how long they are.

They stay coupled for as long as you want.

[Tyson Rayles]

Val, I really love that last one of yours!

 

[Clerk]

Great response Val.

Trains don't nag you to re-arrange the room.

I wouldn't be too sure about that one. At my age, having the washer, and dryer relocated, beats the heck out of a "duck-under"!!

It doesn't matter how long they are.

The allegheny, 2-6-6-6, had a larger fire box, larger boiler,weighed more, and had a higher tractive effort than the 4-8-8-4 Big Boy!........... The Big Boy was LONGER, therefore, the worlds biggest locomotive!.......Go figure

 

[davidstrains]

Val, still laughing!!!

Tyson, you are going to bring that jug over here. This side splitting stuff needs a "shot of relief

And "coupling" is done in the open

a few more:

You can fool with your trains even if they are in Traction.

Trains are always waiting for you to turn them on.

Trains never have a headache.

LOL and rotflmao.That is great! Still LOL.

 

[NYCentral]

I Love it!! LOL

 

[TR-Flyer]

This one works for both sexes:

Having a nice caboose is a plus.

BRAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Val you GO girlfreind!!

Theres a song by Michelle Shocked called 'If love was train'....'I think I'd ride me a long one' wish I could find the rest of the lyrics.


Wipes tears of laughter.... lololol


Found 'em....lol

If love was a train
I think I would ride a slow one
One that would ride thru the night
Making every stop
If love was a train
I would feel no pain and I would never get off

If love was a train
I think I would ride me a long one
Hear me talking
I'm talking fifty boxcars long
Aw, what's the use?
Most trains these days
Ain't got no engine
Much less a caboose woo woo!

 

[davidstrains]

and the beat goes on great thread. It is hard to stop laughing and be serious ---aaahh who cares?

 

[RI541]

I was going to ask something but finding a way to put it a family friendly way is impossible.

Oh well, on a some what serius note:

Was the 2-6-6-6 wider than the 4-8-8-4?

 

[eightyeightfan1]

Trains only whine when you run them.........

 

[Woodie]

Trains don't complain when you play with their hooters.

 

[Tyson Rayles]

Hey Woodie welcome back!

 

[davidstrains]

here are a couple of more for the crew

Trains don't want babies.

Trainss don't notice if you call them by another name.

If another train looks great, your train won't hate it.

When an train gets old and broken down, you can just throw it away and get a new one!!!

ROFL -- Great Stuff!!!!!

~~ When you put your Caboose on a scale - it doesn't have "issues"

~~ Engines don't "get sick" once a month

~~ a tender will NEVER complain that your driving too fast
