Tom, Nice work on the benchwork. Looks like the big layout will be reality soon. Good for you guys. Hot here. Waiting on the weather report. Was supposed to be 102 here today. Sure felt like it. Take care all! Roy

Jim - Got it! I wonder what has changed? John - saw the RR segment on Discovery Dirty Jobs.

Only Buckeye has a Golden Buckeye card! Jim - no e-mail address change here. I have no idea what is going on? If Chief stays in Ohizo - you guys will be floating away. I need him to come back to TX and bring some of that rain!

Chuck - don't worry about the GRITS. Chief has plenty! Another hot one here today (98) and breezy. My son just got back from oral surgery to have two impacted wisdom teeth removed and a couple of bicuspids removed for braces later. The poor guy is miserable and he still has two more wisdom...

Evening all! A bit late today. Got going real early (5:30 am) this morning and didn;t have time to post. John - neat photo of the hand speeder! Looks like that is a nice museum. So will you post some more pics after the OTTS visit? Hot here. Official high was 98, but my thermometer was at...

Afternoon all! Been a while since I posted here. Just limbering up and checking that I can still access the Caboose! Hot here in North Texas - 95 - and no rain in sight. House foundation is suffering and soaker houses are not doing the trick. Watching the World Cup. Regards, Roy

Dan, I like the clever use of the toggle switch for switch throws and routing power/signaling. Nice job! Roy

Morning all! Beautiful day here! 70's and sunny. Tom (Steamtom) - that's a cool loco. I would like to see a G scale live steamer some day. The good news is since I have not seen one is I am not tempted to buy one! Spanky - that's great that Buckeye stopped by your place. Any photos of the...

Tom, Hope the interview went well today. Beautiful day here today. Hit 70 and sunny. Nice breeze. Regards, Roy

Morning all! Cloudy here again and maybe 50's today. Water was "dripping" from the fog last night. Not a heavy fog either. Gil - Like the photos you posted of your paper collection. Tom - nice photo today (as usual). N Gauger - nice work on that trestle! Wish I had a place for one on my...

Morning all! Still cold here but no ice or sleet in my area. Temps going up to 50 today (hopefully). Spanky - great job with the OTTS museum progess. Glad you had a great turnout for the work day! Keep trains running, that's what keeps them coming back! Have a great one all! Roy

Here is a link to a video of my Lionel Empire State Express. The last 2 cars of the consist should be on the way. This is a very nice set. Warning: this AVI file is nearly 8 MB. You need a high speed connection! http://home.comcast.net/~roy.mcclellan/Photos/MVI_1956.AVI

Evening all! Been a couple of days. New look here. Not bad. Still below freezing, but supposed to start warming up tomorrow (40's yippee). Great photos Spanky. Have a busy week coming up this week. Happy Birthday to Buckeye. Hope he survived the ski lessons! HAve a great evening all! Roy

Having some problems posting multiple photos. Extremely tedious. Spanky - hope the 2nd interview went well! I have to go to Boulder, CO, tomorrow morning for a trip. Back late Wed night. Here are some shots of my new Lionel Empire State Express Century Club II set. Lionel has shipped 5 of...

Another great photo Tom! Going to stay cool in Dallas over the weekend. HIghs will be in 50's. HAve had two lows below freezing (barely) the last two nights. Sort of normal N. Texas winter at this point, but extremely dry again. Have a great one all! Roy

Have a safe trip Chief! Gil - the Acela belongs to a friend of mine in the club. It is a beautiful machine, but a bit too modern for my collecting tastes. I prefer steam. Sorry - no leads from me for the Fastrack. I use traditional tubular on my layout. Spanky - great photo as usual! Miles...

Evening all! Spanky - some really good photos. I think I am going to have to get another digital camera. My Canon worls great fpr most stuff, but not close train photos. My friends clunker Kodak does better than mine! Cooler here. Only hit 57 today. At least a little bit of Texas level...

Morning all! Got some much needed rain this morning. The kind that is gentle and constant and soaks in. Cooler though. Glad the Chief is safely back in REBS territory. Spanky - nice photos the last three days. The one from 2-1-06 was especially good! Going on an overnight trip to Houston...

Tom, Beautiful set you have there. The gentleman from BC does some nice work. I collect mostly Lionel, MTH, Willaims, Weaver O stuff. Short radius track does not lend itself to wide radius cars! I also like the UK prototypes. Wish I had the $$ for some of the ACE trains stuff. Would be fun...

Here is my PW Texas Special A-B that I drug out last weekend.
