CSX - I don't see pics? Do I have to join or something?
Yeah, Chewy is good little dog, hope she gets over this soon.
Had a bomb threat at work so me and about 500 other government employees got to stand around outside for 1.5 hours while they searched the building. I heard they know who made the call - I think terrorist threats are treated pretty seriously nowadays. Glad there was no bomb!

Yeah, CTT is shorting out or something? Went to dentist today - no cavities (except the one between my ears). That's hilarious - satellite reciever, lol! Hey, they left my new locomotive on the porch - I guess on Tuesday? Found it this morning. No bell, no knock...
Jim, You got to learn to check that porch every day. They do the same thing here. One reason I prefer UPS or USPS. Our UPS guy has been on this route almost forever, he lets our stuff at the office on days my wife works and delivers to the house on Fridays when she is off. Our mail-girl is the best and brings the packages into the house (will put them on the porch if we are not home) The only problems we have with mail is when a sub is on.
Forgot to mention that I got Trains, Classic Trains & Model Railroader magazines all in todays mail. Looks like a lot of interesting reading.
I am pretty sure you do not have to join to see pics, click on the comments as the pics are there. Joining is free by the way. :thumb:
10-4 Conductor [N gauger] Popcorn and then hit the bed. Got my Trains and Atlas catalog today. Good night.
I am still learning how to use and setup the blog as I never did one beforesign1 there are 3 parts to my blog so far a breif intro no pics, back to back layouts with pics and layout diagram (the missing track in the right layout is where a transfer table will go) and the Misc. trains where I will post interesting photos train related.

light fixtures were replaced, the oil in two of the trucks was changed along with the fuel filters. Several small halogen floodlights were assembled and tested before being added to the stations equipment. All the generators and what seemed like miles of electrical cords were checked and all the pumps were checked for leaks. All in all a busy evening.Today's Weather for:

Try not to screw us all up this time and give us an easy link, or something.
It took me weeks to get on to this thread after the last change??????
GOOD EVENING ALL, caught that part about a new start, hope I can find it although I did ok last time. No trains running today, the wife had a small redo project that turned into a good part of the day. Seems the easy projects take just as long as the tough ones. enjoy the weekend....S.J.
I am ready for a new pot are you???:java1:
Trick or treat is done and over here :thumb:
Now for some Early turkey and cornbread stuffinsign1
Spent most of the day watching Starship troopers cartoon version(much better then the movies) again from the library:mrgreen:
Although I am still unemployed I have a lot of projects going at the same time none of which are near completion but am starting to get them under controlstooges8
Good evening guys,
Hope everyone has a nice weekend. Weather here is to be very nice, as was today.:thumb:
Tomorrow I will be helping the "Train Guys" set up the display layout at the town library. Should be interesting as this is my first time helping with this project.
Still need to winterize the pond and sink the plants, maybe tomorrow afternoon or Sunday afternoon. Most of the flowers are still blooming, although we have had several frosty nights.

Evening all. Back from Church [Trunk or Treat and Fall Festival]. Big crowd. See we are still on the same old "buggy". Pulled our pumps from fountains today. Pecans are falling good now. Off to bed after popcorn.
Chief, if you want to pick up walnuts, stop by any time - tons of them back there. I need to get a big bucket and let some set up for stain one of these days. I'm not sure what you use to thin it out with, some kind of oil I guess? Old timers used kerosene to stain wood.
John - sorry, saw your post about checking the porch but forgot to thank you for the advice. I think they should knock or ring the bell. It's getting dark pretty early here now - time change tomorrow though. Days are getting shorter again.
Nice pic, Jeffrey - always like that little scene on your layout.
Picked up a big history of trains in North America at a book fair today and also a copy of Nuts and Volts as I'm trying to learn electronics at least at a very basic level.
