Actually he is quite competent at his job. I know this because he has worked with me for several years. The only reason that he made a comment like that was that he did know me so well and was fully aware of my unusual condition and that I knew it was in jest. Plus I may have been paraphrasing a...

So the only difference between, say a regular coach car and a Jim Crow coach car would be the fixed labels, white/black/whatever on the Jim Crow car. I would have thought that there would have been much more insistence placed on maintaining the segregation, especially in the southern railroads...

I believe that I will be fairly well backed up on this. I recall numerous threads where folks talked quite openly and were not taken to task for it. And it's hard to find a thread that doesn't have at least one small joke. :razz: The difference, my friend, is that the speakers and...

Peter T Davis. You ask if we get 5,000 people visiting here each day by the virtue of your magnetic personality. You better d@mn bet we do. By virtue of you and Don and Mikey and all of the other Administrators and Moderators who are serving now and who have served before. Out of this rude...

MM, those numbers are crazy! I am so happy that you have been able to receive the care that will (hopefully) speed your way to a fast recovery. Sometimes life trips you up for a reason. :yep: I am one of those medical anomalies that have been frustrating the medical profession for the last ten...

Mark, I hate to say it, but that is some of the CRAZIEST track laying I've ever seen. :eek: :eek: :cry: :cry: :mrgreen:

I just added myself. Didn't we have something similar to this several years ago? [Edit] Just takes me too durn long to read all the posts. :curse: :mrgreen:

I was doing a bit of research for Les who had posted a thread at http://forum.zealot.com/t158173/ and while paging through some consists of Fallen Flags at http://rr-fallenflags.org/atsf/atsf-41pax.html in hopes of finding something useful for him I came across this car classification: Page 8...

The Darwinism theory states that there are those around us that should and will be by a "Stupid" gene be prevented from reproducing. This is an obvious example of that theory. :-o I have debated three days whether to post this or not, the right to know, the tastefulness; all right, there is no...

Don, I just took a close look at the poll and noticed that either you or Peter fixed it. Thanks for making me not look like quite as much as a dufas. :v8: Thanks

Hey Deano, Here's a UP engine that I bet you don't have. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

That was the point of the poll (no matter who did a lousy job of setting it up.) :oops: :oops: :oops: I too was surprised at the number of youg(er) people who enjoy the hobby. That should keep it going strong. I'm in the downhill side, 11/52.

I know what you mean. "But it was Sooooo Cool!" :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Engine Illiteracy updated I've been cruzin' the thread's, enjoying the photos and the people talking about this engine and that engine, and it reminded me of this thread I started (My Gosh, could it have been 2 1/2 years ago! :eek: ) and I thought that it might be worth bumping it up to the top...

Naw, that's the Indian version of a depot. They're taking on more passengers. Don't you see the ladders? sign1

Thanks Mike. It must be a scratch build, I don't remember ever seeing one in either kit or RTR. 'Course I never looked for one either. :mrgreen:

I just remembered another movie to add to the list. I was watching a video done by chessie4155 and in one scene he showed a pickup truck going down the rails. It reminded me of a movie I had seen long, long ago called The Flim Flam Man. In one scene they took a (stolen) truck, let some of the...

What is it? About three minutes into this video you show an engine pushing a piece of equipment that I haven't seen before, or if I did, I didn't know what I was looking at. I am presuming that it has something to do with MOW, but I can't figure out what it is or what it does. Can you educate...

And a fine explosion it is when it happens. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
