Boy y'all been active on here, seems many pages have been added since I last checked in, I thought it was yesterday. With all the talk about building structures for layouts not yet built don't make the mistake I did. I built a factory with loading dock and attached office anticipating having...

It's been a dreary day here, drizzle on and off. Was able to get out front and clean up the leftover debris from the Friday night accident so newspaper and mail delivery folks don't get a flat. Mentioned it on CTT yesterday, there was a headon in front of the house, one fatality. Enjoy your...

Great photos guys. Wish there were some enthusiast that were interested in getting together around here.

Gil - I joined one of the grandaughters at school for a parent/grandparent breakfast this morning. We had: GRITS, pancakes, sausage, sweet roll, fruit cup, and beverage. Yes, sweet iced tea was available, I opted for coffee. Yes, here in rural GA grits are acceptable fare on the school menu...

Our electric costs are reasonible compared to other local power companies. Eventhough, rates have still been climbing. We are served by an EMC, energy management co-op, that has hydro generation and only buys from the big boy, GA Power, when necessary. Compared to a rental house we own in a...

Made another e-bay purchase Friday, I won the auction for a K-line Burlington tanker. I've been trying to get this one for quite a while and finally put in a max that was only about $10 below list, luckily it didn't go that far. Found an old photo of my original layout, ca. 1948. I'll try to...

Chief, thanks for letting me know where ya'll moved the train to. I was starting to go through coffee withdrawl symptoms. Boy all h**l must have broke loose over on CTT, aww I missed all the fun. If we only knew where the vandels were located the closest train crew members could pay a visit...
