Afternoon, waiting for the Scale Trains 6pm locomotive announcement.
Be sure to let us know since they probably use Facebook or some other social media which I don't participate in.Afternoon, waiting for the Scale Trains 6pm locomotive announcement.
Curt: Not for nothing, my 32" main line curves look sharp. 28" will handle anything you wish to run on it. Your layout is going to give you years of enjoyment.Although that looks like a sharp turn in the back ground it's a 28" radius same as the main loop.
Interesting that you got the newsletter today. I subscribe to it and haven't received mine yet. The ES44 is too recent for my era, so I'll pass. Thanks for the info Phil.WILLIE- Check your mail. Forwarded Scale Trains info.

That was our experience as well. I had to pay about $40 for drug co-pays on wife's first knee replacement and that was it. Of course when you factor in the monthly Medicare, supplemental medical insurance and prescription drug plan payments, we did pay something!I spent much of the day on the laptop, looking up all the Medicare MSNs and Supplemental Carriers EOB. Looks like everything related to my recent surgery was paid.
Full moon.I am having weird problems with my computer, and yet it has allowed me to come on here and post. Nuts. Did a 3 hour full scan yesterday, told me there was an unwanted App and to go into security to decide what I wanted to do with it. Went where it said and couldn't find any mention of it.. Been crashing.
Well done, you put yourself ahead of the game. You saved yourself a small fortune!I did a bunch of my own work as well, including replacing a busted timing belt, which required pulling the head because of a bent valve. Most of the systems weren't terribly different as cars go, but the parts were still bloody expensive! anything computer related had to go to the mechanic. That stuff was beyond me. No equipment for it!
My young friend Richard has a VW something or other. He has a mechanic that does work for him and he often pays a total of about half of what I would have charged just for the labor.I remember way back, I managed to have a BMW 2002 and a VW Dasher. Everything on the BMW was at least 10% cheaper than the same VW part, and usually cheaper than that.
That must be when they send out Microsoft Updates, is it?Full moon.
Mine did a Microsoft update yesterday, took me 15 minutes to get mine back to normal. It kept trying to shove Microsoft Edge down my throat.That must be when they send out Microsoft Updates, is it?
I still haven't got my printer back yet after the major update back in June. Probably end up buying a new one. I can't find a way to get rid of the repeat "search suggestions" appearing in the Google search bar which I've never had before. The two major crashes were biggies and then when I tried theis morning the computer went through a whole series of restarts, crashes and the beep that accompanies it going from one part of boot up to the next, became a stream of loud beep-beeps. Only way to stop it was to hold the off button in to shut it down, Then since about mid-day, started up normally and been running OKMine did a Microsoft update yesterday, took me 15 minutes to get mine back to normal.

Microsoft!
Completely agree, although not so much on room as I could have made the train shed much larger than I did. The reason that the museum went three-rail O gauge was because almost all of the layout, structures and equipment was donated by an individual, who started modeling with Lionel many years ago. Many of the current engines are newer models and many of the originals are in the display cases now. If you're ever in the mood for a two or three day outing, you should head that way. About 500 miles from Orlando, and a side trip to the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola could be included. There is also a small medical museum in Foley and it is just a short hop to the beaches in Gulf Shores.Willie- I really like the O scale size but the room needed and the 3 rail track was always a non-starter for me. I know you can now get 2 rail for O scale.
