Good morning everyone
Seeing as I'm the first one in this morning I put a pot of coffee on, and there are bagels on the counter. I put the lox and cream cheese in the fridge so help yourself and happy 4th of July to my American friends.
Had trouble getting on the forum last night but all seems well this morning. Managed to wire up the sidings
I installed and mounted the turnout controls. I'm using Bullfrogs from Fast Tracks, I'll post pictures tonight on my construction thread.
Martin, those are some great looking trees.
David, that lokie looks like it would make a great model.
Have a great day everyone.

Good morning everyone.
Thanks for the coffee and bagels Ron.
I couldn't get on to the forum either last night.
Glad to see it up and running this morning.
Happy July 4'th to our US members.
It's not the day the Declaration of Independence was signed but was the day the Continental Congress agreed to ratify it.
Trees look real good to me Martin.
Thanks for the pics David.
Looks like it will be a nice project.
Heading to my brothers later for dinner.
Going to Moms beforehand though to watch todays stage of the Tour de France.
Hope everyone has or had a great day. |

Happy 4th to the Americans on the forum.
Ron, thanks for breakfast.
David I would love it it Bachmann came out with those engines.
Mark can you share what you have been printing for Roger Waters?
Yes I am a lucky guy that my kids still think about me and find fun things for me to do.

morning all, Tea, Coffee and some scrabled eggs on toast on the side, help yourself.
so its a lovely looking day. need to pop down the bank for some money, and just make a bit of an end for the little board that supports the end of the cassettes, then thats all thats left to do for the show is bake a cake.
in tipical club form we spent our last club evening before a show, folding leaflets, but its better then years ago when the club tradition of finishing layouts the club evening before a show.... :D
hope everyone has a nice day |

Good morning everyone and thanks for the coffee and scrambled eggs Andy.
Another hot day here in sunny Ottawa.[:-bigeyes2] Decided it was too hot to spend the evening outside last night so decided to fiddle around on the layout. I managed to align the turnout to the team track in Mara after spending near an hour and a half fiddling with a throw bar that was getting worse and worse the more i tried to fix it.[:-bigeyes] Decided to cut my losses and install a new throwbar. So after removing the bullfrog, replacing the throwbar and reinstalling the bullfrog, it worked flawlessly. Took me all of 10 minures to do this. Should have changed the throw bar in the first place and save me an hour plus worth of aggravation.[:-banghead]
Have a great day everyone.

Good Morning all,
Another HOT day here, another storm last night, but we still have power which means AC and the internet. Some people are just getting power back on...even more interesting some have power but no internet, phone or TV, they are FIOS and when you loose that you are hosed...I will stick with mixed service thank you. I got several hours in the train room done yesterday, and looks like I have rounded the bend and back into modeling. Saturday is paint day for several locos, since its supposed to be 102 that day.
You all be safe, cool and electrified...

Tom
If you are still there, good luck, take some pictures for us, we need landscapes, skys, clouds, trees, and water pics. If you actually catch some fish..those would be fun too.
Be safe my friend and enjoy every day...

Good morning everyone.
Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Andy.
Tom, enjoy your trip.
We had a thunderstorm roll through here last night too.
Not a lot of rain but a lot of lightning.
Hot here too and not supposed to let up until after the weekend.
I never complain about the heat since I do complain about the cold in the winter.
Hope everyone has or had a great day. |

Good morning everyone.
Got the coffee and hot water ready and since it's going to be another scorcher today I figured a nice cooling breakfast of mixed fruits would be best.
Gotta go and get my ride in early before it gets too hot.
Hope everyone has or had a great day. |

Good morning everyone and thanks for the coffee Rick.
Another scorcher here today and looks like it will stay that way for the weekend. No modeling last night and we shall see what tonight brings.
Have a great day everyone. |
