Congratulations on their achievements! :wave7::wave7:

Good evening, It was a very nice day today, ideal weather. Spent the day at the museum, first in 2 weeks. Last evening I ran the track cleaner on the two small loops. Have to do the main line yet. On that one I have to keep an eye on it as it is occupied by two trains so if I just set it...

Congratulations to both of you on the birth of your new son. I had logged on to post some pics of my new little mountain, they are not big in PA. In honor of Seth I have decided to name it Mt. Wilson. Here are the pics. First the before picture. You can see that this area needed some work...

Good morning, To be another hot one here, that's not to bad for me, but I sure do feel for those who have to work in it like construction and road workers. May get some rain later today for a little relief, hope son gets his soy beans planted before it rains. Logicman, I liked your link, do...

Checking in before hitting the hay. Tomorrow I need to run the track cleaning car on all of the loops and hand clean the sidings. Then house clean the layout room. Just finished watering the garden and some of the flowers. Waited until it cooled down a little. Ozzy, Glad to see you...

Good morning, AC service man is here already. Think I will go to the Air Conditioned gym and do my workout this morning. They already have posted extreme heat warnings. Hoping to host a couple of forum members Friday evening if all goes per plan. Have a good one and stay cool.

Fine with me, the more the merrier. I like the fact that there are guys from most the the gauges here so we get to mingle a bit and learn from each other. Of course the Chief insists that those from the North, sign a Confederacy loyalty oath. :mrgreen:

TrainNut, I just took a look at your layout thread and think you have done a terrific job on that N scale layout. Fabulous scenery. To those who haven't checked it out, take a look, you will enjoy it.

S.J., Just bring it on over and I will do it for you. sign1

You should be able to reset the chuff rate. I like the sound of 3 chuffs on most of my stuff the best. Not prototypical but sounds the best to my ear in a model.

Spent the morning reworking the front door, which over the years has grown with to many coats of paint and just seems to have swelled or else the jamb moved. Anyway I took it off, removed all the hardware and planed both sides and top. Had to reset all the hardware to match the new finished...

Often wonder why anyone would willingly go camping! My first and last time was with Uncle Sam. When I got out I said I would never sleep in a tent again unless I had a gun pointed at my head. Never did either. Of course my wife has the same enthusiasm for camping that I do so we get along...

Doug, Just where did you do the zipping? Home to Train? Train to work? Both? :?:

Good morning all, Chief, Hope you have recovered from the festivities. Sounds like that neighbor needs professional help. John, Hope the test come out OK. Partly sunny here after overnight rain. Sprayed the roses, which were in bad need of it. Getting warm, probably make the 80s today...

Happy Birthday Chief, Don't let them give you a hard time, just jealous that you are still a young buck. I can always remember your birthday as you were born just two days after my wife was born. We had .6" of rain last evening and night. Cloudy but no rain so far today. Squash should get...

It is only about 2 weeks late for our climate! The ground has been to wet. Most of the farmers have not gotten their soy beans in yet. Some corn but not all has been planted. Very wet spring here.

Good evening, Another nice day with a few clouds now and then. Didn't do much as I didn't feel the greatest. This evening I did plant a few squash as it is supposed to rain again tonight and it is late for planting already. They tarred and chipped the road in front of our house today, what a...

Tom, I love those LNE cars, but where are the coal hoppers?

Kim, I am very sorry to hear about Shane. He will be missed by all on the forum. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Great pictures this week. Like that tank car, looks real. Herc Driver, how long is that layout. Should make for some interesting operation. Nothing to post just now, but still looking.
