Morning all, went to court as summoned, result NOT GUILTY,,, they commented on how it was a waste of the magistrates time and expence and it should never have gone to court in the first place,,,like i told them
Carey let me see,,,who has just got a new camera,,,Ah,,,Grande Man what do you think, New Rebel Camera without a cause i recon a bit of practice on turnouts is required, that should give him some practice.

we had to do some smooching so I found an old country road and everything was perfect. Time to leave and ...oh! oh! I'm stuck.
Morning fellas, well I had the camera out last night with good intentions but batteries were low so the flash wouldn't operate. Got the batteries charging for tonight thought. Going to be a slow day around the office for me today.
I just treid something new. I just listed about $5000 of warehouse equipment on eBay for $.99. If it sells at a decent price, I'll use it to kick start my new business (and fund the trackwork for my new layout.) If it sells for $.99, I'll be able to park my wife's car in the garage for the first time since moving into this house 5 years ago. The downside is small, the upside is good.
Good Morning All ! See all is pretty well CJ hope you get the jpb closer to home. With gas prices on the way up you need all the help you can get! Carey glad that people are learning f the proper way to lay track .Know there will be some good layouts as a result. Steve you plan on crossing over and taking a ride on that train ? Gotta go make my sausage now so take care all !
Sorry Chip! I hope you know I was just being sarcastic. I just had to say that..... Seen quite a few on e-bay that seem that way. Hope you get some good bids on it, it would be a great deal for the right person.
Ray The job interview went great. I do not know when I start but the boss said he would call me in a day or two with my schedule. Really enjoyed talking to the owner of the True Value and I am sure I will enjoy the job. It will be a ten minute commute versus the 35 minute I now have. Almost an hour to do other things like trains and more trains.
just found out about a great DCC deal which you get an NCE pro cab and everything you need to get going in DCC, the whole package for £99, that's cheaper than the Lenz system and easier to use i'm told,
I'm sure glad Vicky didn't plant any early-spring crops in her garden yet because there's a major freeze warning for my region thru the weekend!
In other news - I finally finished entering my layout trackplan into XtrkCAD last night, now I can start planning future mods!
Larry, congrats on the new job!
NZ Ken - Hope the move continues to go smoothly, take care of that headache
Steve - NCE systems are excellent! [Are you getting the Power CAB or Power Pro? I never heard of a 'Pro Cab' system] Anyway, I was thinking about getting a Power Cab starter set - until I realized it cannot be adapted for radio use. My layout configuration would have required me to install ~16 throttle panels and lots of additional cabling [if I didn't get radio], so I wound up upgrading my existing Digitrax set instead. But if your layout is around-the-walls, then a tethered system should work OK.
Morning Steve, Bill, and Jeffrey. Another surprising cool morning here, well I got the whole evening cleared after work to do some more benchwork. Maybe I'll make some progress that looks like progress. I got my camera all charged and made sure it was working fine that way I take some pictures finally. Hope everyone has a good day.

Another crowded day here. Looks like your cooking has improved Flo!
Ken L, the ProCab is the throttle with the Power Pro System. Yes the NCE systems are very nice. I have the Digitrax Super Chief Radio, and I love it.
We have some funny looking white stuff all over the place here in the Finger lakes this Morning. Just when you thought it was safe to mow your lawn......
