Dave is my hero! Thank you Dave, for protecting the other 99.99% of us who actually see this as a way to relax and enjoy ourselves...:) Tom F

I'd have to say ABSOLUTELY! With all the crusty curmudgeons hanging around the hobby shops that I frequent, most women wouldn't be caught dead in there... ("Heh, heh, [cough, cough] so little lady [snort], what's yer' [hack, hack] sign?...[sniff, hack]") I'm a 6' 4" 270 pound ex dockworker...

Everyone should take a look at the archives. There is some REALLY great stuff in there. I would like to see more. The article about cleaning track with tuner cleaner was right on target. I've been using the stuff for 20 years, just never though to use it on track until I saw the article. It...

You gotta' be kidding... After what we been through, I don't think we can BE offended...:D Thanks for the kind words, it's appreciated...;) Tom F

Will you speak with the criminal psychologists? They're always sayin' something different about me... :mad: HEY! That's hittin' close to home! Besides, it is totally untrue. I'm not really that knowledgeable in MRRing. I just steal all my ideas from the rest of you...:D Yeah, sure...

I know the UP still has a lot of them as they got the MP and CNW units. I don't have a lot of UP pics posted yet (I've been REALLY busy) but there are a dozen or so on my site here: http://www.trainweb.org/tomfassett/pics/up/up_0-1999.html I have also seen one on the NS and a bunch on the...

Late 70s? Into model railroading? To heck with her age, is she married? (So what if she's older than me' mum...):D :p Tom F Wait a minute, she's not into that kinky stuff is she? If she's an ON30er, I rescind my question (shudder...) Sorry Catt, it had to be said...:p ;)

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D You guys are killin' me!!! I laughed so hard the cat thinks I finally made that last step into... Whatever... He's hiding in the other room...:D :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p I got one more... "Hey Joe, how did you know the track was live, you've got...

Uh, poked my head in the door and Saw Tom and Wolv whispering in the corner and glancin' my way. I think they be a'talkin' 'bout me... Geez, think I'll go somewhere else...:p :D Tom F

Actually, I have never understood the general lack of interest in modeling (not clothes... :-) by women. There is certainly a wealth of talent out there. Modeling is basically sculpture in miniature, with a "real world" theme. I have a female friend who is a genius at doing large scale...

Hey Nelson, I gotta' wait to see how the day goes before I'll agree with the TGIF thing... I need to catch up two weeks of work--today...:eek: Somebody keep Wolv away from the sugar... If he keeps going without sleep, he's gonna' start acting weird... Wait a minute, too late...:D You...

I'm jealous. I gave up on foam 'cause I could never get it to look right. I went back to good old plaster. How did you get such a smooth face (surface) without losing the striation detail? Every time I tried to smooth the face, I either got little "nubs" all over the place, or it looked like...

Oh brother (or sister, as the case may be)... Don't get Debbie going on this. She knows more about model railroading than I'll ever know in a lifetime. She'll put up 20 or more paragraphs on this one...:D Tom Quick, everybody, keep her busy and maybe she won't see this...:p

Thanks for the clarification Catt... I was gonna' ask but being new and all, didn't want to over extend myself. As I said before, when in someone else's house, abide by the house rules or feel free to uninvite yourself... Looks to be a great bunch here, glad to know someone is looking out for...

Jeff, Thanks so much for the heads up. I drives me crazy to see all the good stuff on the East coast and have no idea what's going on in an area I might actaully be able to get to. Anything you know about get togethers of this nature in the Southwest or West coast, I'd like to hear about. Tom

Hey Bonkyrail, he really does know you. Fits right in too(he, he)...:p Lynn, if you ever figure out where this thing came from, I want one... I'm a critter fanatic...:D Tom
