They don't do that over there? I figured they would at least that and probably this one as well.

No, McD and BK are not that adventurous over here. Though I'm not sure I'd care for a double Big Mac over here anyway. McD is the crappiest of the fast food burgers. Now, in Japan I'd happily try it since McD in Japan is a far better experience.
Drive carefully. While most people there are "normal", there are still some that consider Bo and Luke to be amateurs.
Most people drive defensively, my neighbor drives offensively, he says I'm the guy you look out for.
This is what every 10/22 wants to be......

Mine has a few extra parts on it. Mostly for the coyotes that wander too close to the house.
Hey, just out of curiosity....what is this thread for?!
To keep Terry and Bob on their toes.
Good evening. We are enjoying a cool down, while TV news continues to have a melt down over an Atlantic Hurricane, that is not projected to come close to the east coast. Other than rough seas.
I actually ventured to the orchard where we bought fresh peaches at their prime. Also real Jersey Tomatoes, ot the hot house grown in Canada ones that ShopRight sells.
Am currently working on two kits, a covered hopper used to haul glass sand, and a N5 Cabin Car in PC Green.
Back to the surgeon's on Wednesday after X-rays.
Have a safe night.
Oops, sorry. Hornby. GP35 for comparison although different scale (GP35 should be a bit larger.)

Early experimentation with installing a headlamp before realizing the body was all metal and drilling would probably end up with damage.

Tiny space for decoder. TCS KA-N1 behind decoder. Not sure if it does anything but it makes me feel better...

Fear not the drilling of metal body shells! Take it slow , keep the drill lubricated and you will be fine. The most wonderful thing is using "pico" sized LEDs you can practically anywhere. I usually will drill out enough of the lamp assembly for the LED to fit, the use an .020 or slightly larger drill to make holes for the wires. Just big enough for the enameled wires to fit into the shell.
Here's a few example of cast locos with LEDs, and 1 plastic but tiny.
These both have cast metal boilers and decoders with sound.
Cast metal Mantua w/ can motor and decoder
Another cast metal body drilled for LEDs, an ancient Penn Line Whitcomb switcher.
I'm sure you will recognise this cheeky little plastic fellow with a decoder and a yeloglow LED.
Everything should have a light so the don't get scared at night!

I know one of my friends grows a lot of her own fruits and veggies because she's vegan and doesn't really care for store produce all that much. A few months ago, she gave me some homemade raspberry jam her and her boyfriend made and it was amazing.

Not over here. They drive like a-ho's. But then they blame folks over 70 for the accidents. Media storm. I watched some of that propaganda yesterday as they showed these golden drivers taking the now mandatory driving test, I believe once a year for over 70 and they were pointing out the mistakes that they were making. My comment to my wife was that's how all of them drive. They should be requiring the 30's and above to take that test as well. The 70 year olds are driving like they always did, like they all do now.
ooh, Hawaiian music playing, ahhhhh much better.

Those are awesome!
I did drill out my Mantua 0-6-0 but did have the bit walk down the side. I thought I had it started well enough. I may revisit it and try from the inside. I'll have to work out the angles first and possibly build a rig to keep everything in place.
Did that for my N C62.
I only stick a post here every so often to not bore or bother you guys too much.
No worries you are neither. On the other hand, I often ignore YouTube notices without looking where it comes from. If you post here, I won't miss it.

Now I feel deprived.

He won't eat that. He has never been to McDonald's, ever!
I would eat that in a flash!
Best one yet! I love the tempo changes, and the photo is awesome. Do I hear some "Yes" influence?
Consider making the songs shorter to fit short attention spans.
I enjoyed it as is, but I'm an old Album Rock guy. This song is like a cool journey. Thanks for sharing.

From what i see many people drive like Bo and Luke. The only difference is Bo and Luke had more skill and good sense. The roads are a crazy place!
Oh my God are they good! There is a reason they call it the garden state.
I'm trying to catch up with this thread. It is difficult to do during baseball commercials. As you see my replies are from all over the joint!
Forgive me if I missed any and I suspect I have missed many.

Hi. Thanks.
Some of the other are shorter. Especially some more “rock”’oriented ones. But as it’s supposed to be fusion and prog blended, it’s supposed to be long and drawn out. That’s what prog and fusion is !!

Good morning. It's 77 and clear.
Good Tuesday morning! It's 72°F and hazy.
Have a great day! 
Good morning gang!
64° under cloudy skies temps only supposed to get up into the mid 70s today.
Kusojiji, that’s one impressive jig you’ve got holding up that Loco!

Don’t base your decisions on the advice of those who won’t have to deal with the results.
