    I had to wait at a crossing today in Banning Ca, and there were more than a few BN being pulled by a couple of UP engines. Could be normal; I guess I never noticed.

    WS Grand Valley Set

    You're between a rock and a hard place, but two years is alot of time to plan. If there isn't much to spend your money on in Guam, think of everything you can accomplish when you get back. I know military contract shipping. Best to build something that can be crated up.

    I don't know of anyone but those kits look like the have the potential to become a huge mess. I guess if you're not in a hurry and you pay attention, it will probably turn out fine.

    Addicted to Geeps?

    That's why I sneak them into the garage along with the groceries. "Babe, I'm just going to put these extra wine coolers and gallons of milk in the garage fridge." It's worked so far. Last week it was a pair of unmarked Southern Pacific SD45-2T's from Athearn.
