    Morning folks, its currently 51 and WINDY. Gonna be a weather rollercoaster for the remainder of the week. Last night I along with my parents enjoyed Taco Tuesday with my boss and his wife, she made taco pie while my mom made a chocolate chip pound cake with cream cheese frosting. Both were...

    Morning folks, currently cloudy and cool but should clear up and push a little over 80 today. This past weekend was absolutely gorgeous! Did some more work on the tree, mowed the yard and helped my dad plant a small crop of 18 potatoes. I had my shirt off most of the time, can definitely feel...

    Thanks Willie, I'll have to take some measurements. I got a 24 pack from Evemodel just to try them out, and a Micro mark truck tuner. One boxcar I did the swap on, the wheels are super sloppy, they're barely hanging onto the trucks. I know I didn't over-ream them. I'll have to check out the...

    Morning folks, currently 68 and cloudy but it should clear up and get warmer later on. Had a dentist appointment earlier this morning, just a simple cleaning. Dr. said no cavities!👍 Last night I started converting some of my rolling stock to metal wheels and Kadee couplers. I'm wondering if I...

    Morning folks, its currently 60 outside, a little chilly but no need for a coat imo. Update on the lightning-struck oak tree in the yard: My dad and me got all the small stuff piled up outside the yard either to be hauled off or ran through a chipper, the remaining pieces are too big for our...

    I've been to Chilifest once, wasn't all that impressed. What did impress me was the literal mountain of couches that were left over from the event.

    Afternoon folks, its currently 67 and cloudy but still bright. We're expecting the temps to drop tonight/tomorrow morning with the wind chill pushing 30. Me and my dad were planning to go to a swap meet tomorrow, but that weather may deter us. In regards to chili...Down here in Texas, if chili...

    Morning folks! Once again its chilly this morning but will warm up later. Boss is back at work, so now I can't be lazy anymore, though he's still not feeling the best. Today my grandfather would've turned 100, in fact both of my grandfathers would've celebrated their 100th birthday this year...

    Athearn and Roundhouse kits: Worth it?

    Majority of my rolling stock are Athearn BB's, all work fine though I plan to upgrade them all with metal wheels eventually.

    Mornin' folks. It's cool this morning but not cool enough for a jacket imo, we're expecting rain tonight possibly around midnight. I pulled out a SW1000 and SW1500 I had packed away, lubed them up a bit and ran them on a stretch of track. They hummed right along. Hmm, this coffee taste funny.

    Running Bear's January 2024 Coffee Shop

    Afternoon folks. Currently 72, was high 40s when I woke up. Staying busy at work, we're pushing about 4 weeks behind with no catching up in sight. I guess that's a good thing, but geez give us a break! 😫 Started tinkering on a locomotive build last night, once I get farther along with it I'll...
