Ok ... I'm back from the train show, ... I didn't get a chance to take many photos of the Outlaws setup, with about 10 modules missing from the show due to circumstances beyond our control, there weren't much new to show. I took some photos of the RD Moses T&P layout at the Museum & photos of the inside of the J Gould private rail car, built by Pullman coaches.

I purchased too much stuff, the wife doesn't know yet, still waiting for the other shoes ... I bought a 2-4-4T On30 Forney ...

Also bought this On30 Mack Rail truck ... it has a tranny problem and doesn't run ... I'll get parts from Bachmann and put a galloping goose sound decoder in it ... plus order a resin upgrade kit, from Backwoods Miniature's

Nooooow you've done it.
Dum,dum,dum,dum! :pinch:
You're in trouble now. Nice looking train stuff though.
Cool train pieces vs doghouse?
Oh well, you scored some more toys!

Just kidding of course.
I wonder if the wifeys ever say the same thing we do about getting something and the hubby doesn't know it yet?

Haven't you figured it out yet? Women have it all over guys on deceit. There is a major reason my dating switch went to the off position and I don't date anymore. I now know why single guys tend to live longer. My stress level is about 15% of what it used to be when I was dating and married. :dance :eek:hyeah

That's just the way my mom and dad raised me. You love em no matter what!

I feel the same way 20 years ago today I married the best country girl in the country, we're going out gown-tailing tonight. This morning she got up to go to work at 4:00 AM before she left she had the dishes washed, clothes washed, ironed folded and put away ... I'm the luckiest Man in the world, a good wife is hard to find, honestly I just let go of looking, and let God send Me my wife, He did a great Job ...

Nice Score on the racer Steve ... I'm sure you'll do Her proud ... (y)

First, a heartfelt thank you to all who bought from my Garage Sale. I hope you are happy (or will be James as I don't think you got yours yet) with the purchases.

So, what did I get in return? This is part of it, see if you find a trend:

These are enamel tins on sale at only $1.22USD each. I couldn't decide (since it is all in Czech) so I got all of the ones in the series I was interested in:

There is some nice stuff there Saul! Where did the paint tins come from? I have a bunch of "OLD" Humbrol that is still good. Like the stuff and these look to be the same type tins (which tend to not go bad).

Yeah I need to get busy and sort my pile out and put up for sale a chunk of it. Have been paying off my big card bills and "hopefully" this week I will pay off the one that is left. (YAY!) :dance It doesn't have any interest till November but want it gone.

Which is all good because the house I have been in the last couple of years is going up for sale in July. So no contest trips this year it looks like. Should be no problem getting a loan for it as my rating should be quite good.

This arrived last night!


Excellent score John! I have a friend who built one of those; he took several awards with it and a few contests. You are really going to enjoy that one; he told me it was a blast to build. I do hope I can watch you do it; let me know when you start a Thread on this.
