    12,000 railway wheel sets prone to loosen: TSB

    I think they did, but they just don't know where they are :( If you don't have the data to begin with it's hard to come up with it after the fact.

    How about a MOW equipment photo contest

    LOL, no I meant knowing what it's real job is. I took some shots of a scary little critter in the yard in town a month or so ago and I have no idea what it might do. I think it might be for breaking up ice, but it looks like it'd be a curmudgeon in Thomas' world.

    Code 40 Low Profile Wheels and Locos

    Thanks for the updates. So far on straight flex track no noticeable jumping here with an Atlas U25B, Life-Like GP18 and SW1200, so I think I'll be ok loco-wise. I'm still not sure what possessed me to buy a Roundhouse 2-8-0, but when it gets here I'll check it out on it too.

    N Scale Dummy Engines

    An alternative might be to find ones being sold for parts on eBay et al. There are usually a dozen or more and for $20 or so you can pick up a few locos, remove the motors, and have a new set of dummies. Just search N Scale with "for parts" in quotes, and check the box to include description...

    Economic Stimulas Check

    No, it's a one time bribe because we've spent so much on Iraq and $1500 toilets that our economy sucks. So the idea is if you toss a few hundred dollars to every one they'll spend it and business will pick up, or at the least you'll be less bitter because your uncle gave you some money.

    It's all about class.....

    It's pretty thin, but may be a basic intro to the thoughts behind them. Maybe somebody knows of one that breaks them out by RR: Class (locomotive) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    CSX...Please 'splain....

    Seems a waste for the 100th post, but before the train can get where it's going it has to get half-way there, then half-of the next half. It will never actually arrive, right?

    Truck Jumps

    It's the 3rd and 4th shots that seal the deal. How could you possibly see that in front of you and think you could "make it".

    Prr Hh-1

    Yeah, I have a feeling a lot of web images of the old color stuff came from prints or slides that had sat long enough to shift quite a bit. I'm surprised at the sharpness too, though. Your comment made me think about trying to bring out the flesh/red/brick bits a bit. Not sure this is...
