Track plan to finished benchwork in 2 days. I wish I could work that fast. :)

I believe it's midnight tonight. I'm not generally a union supporter, but from what I've read about the issues, all I can say to the UTU is, "Don't give in, stick it to 'em!"

Here's a brief history and a picture of the track in Woodstock and the car Estelle that travelled the line. Next week I'll bring a picture of my house from the 20's that shows the track in front of it. A shop in town has a picture through the village of Beachville, but I'm not sure yet if it's...

That's a neat little layout Bill. Keep up the good work! :)

I thought there was one in the Conestoga mall? I've never been to any in the k-w area. I think there might be one in north Cambridge too, or maybe it's 2beintrains in Fergus I'm thinking of....

I'll take George's prices over some others any day. One thing I like about Georges is they attend some of the less than local shows (Woodstock, Paris etc). Gives me a chance to shop there without actually going to TO.

Awesome stuff. Who makes it? Is the TH&B one the same style as CPR plows? CP keeps one in the Woodstock yard for clearing some of the branchlines around here.

How'd you get the textures and stuff on it? I was expecting a little more than recycled cardboard.... And mine took over a month to get to me.

Well guess what, I missed it because I got out of class WAY too early and went home instead. 2 good things though, I saw it from across a field on the drive home, beautiful train, BTW, and I got an A+ in the class. :)

Hope to catch it here next week if night school gets out on time. :)

Nope, it's a 48-50 Ford F1.

The HOMES layout looks really good! Almost as good as Doctorwayne's :) I wish they would have scheduled this on a different day than the Toronto Christmas show, then I may have considered going.

My daughters loved all the displays, especially the one in the trailer. I thought the vendors were a little thin, I was hoping to find some bargains and almost took all my $$ back home with me, until I found some auto racks on my second walk-thru. How come George's was absent? David, did you...

Anybody actually get theirs yet? 3 weeks since I sent my request for free sample and I haven't received it yet....

Last call! See you there tomorrow afternoon. :)

No I wasn't, I just liked to stop at the Baden club as one of the last stops on the Doubleheaders tour each spring. One of my favorites for year to year improvements. The cathedral he built on that layout was excellent!

Hmm, cousin Greg looks familiar. Did he used to be part of the Baden model railway club?

The museum had problems with the roof last year - a couple panels fell down, and the building was declared temporarily unsafe, which I think limited work on the 0-6-0. You can catch more info on the Canada Southern Yahoo group.

I'll be taking my 2 older girls on Saturday afternoon. The TO show is a great mix of operating layouts (for the kids) and bargain tables (for me). :) And here's the $2 off coupon and admission prices: http://www.antiquetoys.ca/coupon_train_show_nov17_06.pdf Hope to see some of you there! :)

Hmm, can't remember the company name for Italian source for this stuff....black & yellow catalogue? Parker makes similar stuff in 40 x 40 mm, and Bosch has 30 x 30 and 45 x 45 profiles. Awesome stuff to use, quick to build things, but not cheap. My advice for cutting it (from experience): use...
