Deano!! Really gr-r-r-reat photos! Who sez you're not a professional photographer?? I've studied photography, and there is nothing, I repeat, nothing wrong with your photographs! :thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:

My wife and I noticed a "work train" on the NS tracks, by the river, Sunday a.m., as we were headed to church. On the way back, we drove down to the tracks to take a closer look. There, parked on a little used siding, was a long string of weird looking locos, that didn't look a whole lot like...

Magnetics I'm doubting anyone's word, but if I remember correctly, the wire I used to make an elctro-magnet was copper, wound aroung a large nail. I don't recall the copper being coated, but it might have been. BTW, the project I just mentioned will work fine with batteries, but I'm not too...

wheelsets First and foremost, welcome to the Forum! I can't give an opinion which are the best, but I would use Kadee, if I weren't so cheap..., er..budget conscious. :wave:

Databases... ...and other paranormal entities. Yes, I created a database in MS Works. It's not too difficult, as I have created databases, before. At one time, long ago and far way, I created a database for my wife's and my website. Too many items to keep up with, though. I, too, have a lot of...

I finally got r' done! After working steadily for 5 days, some in 90+ degree heat, with 75% humidity, I completed recording my roster, just a few minutes ago. Not to brag, but I have the following: 80 freight cars, including some "specialty" types; 19 locos, including 2 steamers; and 24...

Welcome! Hi, bubaiva! welcome to the forum! It does my old heart good to see people from other countries on here!:wave:

I have read, and enjoyed this forum for awhile, and I know one of you can answer my questions. What kind of foam do most of you use, and where can I find it? I've tried every craft and hobby shop within 100 miles of where I live, and the only thing I can find is green foam, (which is very hard...

I have been watching this blog for awhile, now. The US cannot afford to electrify the RR's until it sheds the idea that all new power plants have to be coal fired. The local power company has, once again, decided to raise it's rates by more than 24%. They don't wait until the Commerce Commision...

Terrific job! Great work! :thumb:

I certainly hope so!:wave:

Thanks for the Memorial pic. Did you make the Memorial yourself? It looks great! :thumb:

Bummer,man! Plenty of liquid dish soap should help get it up. Remember, don't rub! Blot! Also, "bar towels," aka "detail cloths" are vey helpful, too.

I had a '64 Chev 1/2 tonnner, with a wide rear window, a souped up 327, dual exhaust and Blue Missile mufflers. It was a four speed, and I loved to downshift into third, and let the engine be my brakes, when comming down Oak Creek canyon. Some times I'd grab second gear around the tightest...
