    Hasn't anyone noticed...

    Still got a question. I've noticed the changes, and I love them. Moving the gobby-gobby stuff to the right puts the letter writing where it should be, not as much scrolling back and forth to read it. Would you believe that my right arm is getting larger because of that moving back and forth...

    My thought for today

    Irony I see the ironic humor in Gil Finns musings and dribbling. I'm sorry, that was drivel, wasn't it. I rather enjoy it. But all in all, Mike, please, please don't stop your thoughts for the day. I really look forward to them. They always have a good moral. Lynn

    Lucked out again

    About a year ago at a garage sale, a lady gave me a standard gauge Lionel, made in 1933. It was in very bad shape. Today, at the train show in Tyler, Texas, I swapped it for a sealed set of IHC Texas Zephyr passenger cars (8), and a new P2K E8/9 Burlington that matched the set. That boils down...

    goofy question?

    Oh yeah! Don, Relic and I are in the same boat, slow on this new fangled electronic stuff. I found the "forum" and clicked on it, but I couldn't find a "mark forums read" anywhere, much less the center of the page. Did I miss something? Lynn PS Another question. What is the difference...

    goofy question?

    Another I can't answer yours, but I have another question to go with it. On the "old" Gauge, when I logged in and hit NEW POSTS, it would also say 21 new posts, or whatever. Now it shows umpty-ump pages and hundreds of entries. Howcum? Lynn

    Just for fun, how strong is your engine?

    A 7' X 24' oval could hold 102 cars with a few inches left, nose to tail. A P2K E8/9 and an IHC Challenger were the only two that could pull that many cars solo. Lynn

    Polarity of Atlas Switch Machines

    wiring I imagine under the table machines wire up the same as above table. If yellow is middle, that is probably ground (common). So both commons hook together in the center. Then hook up one switch. Color shouldn't matter as long as it works. Then touch the other 2 wires to the switch posts...

    Not exactly ebay,..but....

    Shipping is $16.27 plus insurance. Note, that in #8, it is hand delivered cash only. If I'm in a good mood at the time of payment, I will waive shipping and hand it over to you at the time. I generally stay in a lousy mood, so call ahead to see how I feel. You're probably not going to get it...

    offers You people are pushing me now. Yes, the knife set goes with it, but it is not complete. Most used for cutting up cans and sawing files in two. The offer is up to $37.21 but reserve not met. How can a poor, decrepit old man make a dishonest living around here? What do I have to do...
