    Terry gets about 24-36 hours from her disposable batteries. Hers are Bluetooth connected and she watches TV with the audio via Bluetooth. She gets a 60 minute warning that repeats every 10 minutes

    Weathering Engines a Continuous thread.

    Never a good thing when the client says, where is ??? Found it as it is labeled for him but in the next pile of diesels over! #2867 is a Gp39-2 from Athearn Genesis but instead of a Tsunami2 decoder has a ESU version 4. Again purchased pre-owned it’s not programmed to default 3 or the cab...

    Next locomotive up is a STX GE ES44ac operator version of BNSF 5756. Interesting that the last 10 diesels I have weathered have all been either Athearn Genesis with Soundtraxx Tsunami2 decoders or already programmed to cab number STX Rivet Counters with ESU version decoders. This was a pre-owned...

    Weathering Rolling Stock, a Continous thread

    If the medium being used is oils they most likely are using a mineral spirit type liquid to remove it. They are many types of mineral spirits available to the artist and painter community. It’s a wipe on, wipe off type of activity. While they truly are not wiping off 100% of the medium they are...

    Troy I’m not able to offer any advice on your “tinnitus” but wish you the best on your search for help As for the trial… it must be your journalistic background coming through. I understand folks interest but I try to stay as far from it as possible. You and my wife would enjoy meeting. Enjoy...

    I would agree with that. Funny though, I didn’t realize it was a factory fade. I faded it my way on the top of the factory

    Good morning. It’s another morning where I feel I can just reach up and touch the clouds. But they are really moving across the sky quickly. 59f degrees now heading to just 61 but it will be windy and dry. All the weather excitement with the tornado watches and warnings was kind of overwhelming...

    Terry asked me if “WE” needed to stop at Buffalo Phil’s today. No need… Monks downtown was a must though You still have a daughter at home so yes the Dells can still be exciting. They were for us too until the daughter turned 16 with her driver’s license. Before that we always spent time...

I will check out the lawn cutting equipment later this morning as the grass definitely needs...
