Good morning. It's 57 and mostly cloudy. The high will be around the mid 70's and it will be mostly cloudy. Today I'll be back into the work of moving gravel but with a very notable difference. One of my neighbors will be doing all the shovel work and I'll be doing the driving. Progress on...

Just as I've seen a number of SP units. The original number on top with the new number beneath. Others had them the way you described.

Good morning. It's 38 and clear. Expect the high to be around 70. It will be partly cloudy. Got the AHM/Rivarossi observation car apart and ready for stripping. I haven't decided yet on the type of doors to fit into the sides of the car. Boxcar doors would be too high. Maybe a couple of...

Because it's been patched and has a date with the repaint shop.

Good morning. It's 46 and clear. The high will be around 60 and it will be partly cloudy. Started work on a AHM/Rivarossi Amtrak 85' flat end observation car. Unfortunately both truck retainer pins snapped off while I was trying to remove the trucks. I'll have to drill out the holes and tap...

Right off hand I don't see any reason for a coke retort at a steel mill, though I don't know much about how steel is made. From what I can see at the Walther's site there are 6 kits in the Ashland Steel Mill set that are made to go together and the coke retort isn't one of them. These 6 kits...

I still have some problems posting here. Can't say I blame the former mods for quitting. The demands of the new owners were unreasonable to say the least. I allow my staffers to serve as staff on whatever forum(s) they want to.

Good morning. It's 35 and clear. The high should be around 60 and it will be sunny (unusual this time of year). Not much done yesterday aside from some restoration work on some structures. I'll probably continue with the same today. Today's Weather for: Sundown, LA 71446-6114 2/22/2009...

Good morning. It's 44 with lots of sunshine but don't worry. It'll get back to normal as there's a chance of rain today. The high should be around 65. It's nice to be back home. That hospital got very boring after the first 5 minutes and it was nearly impossible to get anything resembling rest...

Hi guys. About my absence of late: I landed in the local hospital with a cellulites infection in my right leg caused by, as my doctor says, doing heavy work (shoveling and hauling gravel) that I shouldn't be doing. I had noticed last Friday that I had ripped my foot open a little. So apparently...

Good morning. It's 50 and very cloudy. The high today should be in the mid 60's and there's a chance of rain. What else is new. Got six loads of gravel moved yesterday and felt like I'd been hit by a 18 wheeler after the last load. There's still about 15 feet of ditch yet to be graveled. Not...

DSL isn't available here. Too far from town. Besides, I have no home phone service.

Remember what I said about the cable service raising rates and reducing services? Well they did it again! Up until a week ago I had high speed internet at 3mb download speed for $42. Well now I'm told they did away with the 3mb speed package and I'm now paying $42 for 1mb download speed. Talk...

These days it don't take long to fill up a 40 gig drive. I have an 80 gig and it has 39 gigs filled.
