Afternoon, everyone.
Mark, that's one good thing about those old Fiero's. If you stuck your foot in it too much you blew up the engine. That and the Porsche 914 always seemed like engineering disasters to me. The concept of a mid-engine car never did make a lot of sense.
Jeffrey, hope things go well at the docks. From your videos, it looks like you've got some pretty long trains running. About 15 cars is it for me before the train starts chasing the caboose.
Tom, nothing like a properly cooked turkey to make Thanksgiving more enjoyable. I haven't even touched any Christmas decorations yet and I won't until the family starts yelling loud enough.
Phillip, that sounds like a great contest, Just get them to sign a waiver that they'll pay your medical bills for frostbite and black ice crashes first.
Steve, I suspect turning off the heat is another cost saving tool while telling the employees it's broken. I had a boss that used to do that with the air conditioner in mid-summer. It was only after he left that we found out he was telling the maintenance guys to turn it off and keep their mouths shut. That's nice that you made up such an everlasting tribute to Brian.
Pretty nippy here with a low of 36 and some howling winds. Less windy today but brisk at 52 right now. Looks like there was a little snow in far north Alabama but just windy and cold here. I'm putting up some new traffic lights on the layout but painting the signal heads yellow to cover the black it came with since yellow is the sort of standard color here. I forgot how many coats of yellow it takes to cover black. I think I'm on my sixth coat now and it still doesn't look quite right. I knew I should have started with primer, dang it!
