14-5 1:57:06	ejshelton	The one that is running it would be.....unfortunately
14-5 1:56:06	soccrdad30	mmm, bad to hear that, so they would be satisfied without any Z
14-5 1:55:12	ejshelton	I wouldn't either
14-5 1:54:31	rvn2001	Maybe............but I wouldn't hold my breath.
14-5 1:53:51	soccrdad30	maybe they will come begging Thom for some Z
14-5 1:52:55	rvn2001	Yup
14-5 1:52:39	soccrdad30	Teamwork makes the Dreamwork!
14-5 1:52:11	GNFan	Thanks, Doug.
14-5 1:52:10	ejshelton	Good Luck
14-5 1:51:37	DAZed	I just reached out to my contacts. I'll try to find out what the deal is.
14-5 1:51:20	ejshelton	Not sure I do. But one group is using my old modules....and we had one other Z layout at a show
14-5 1:50:13	soccrdad30	I would not have any clout there
14-5 1:47:58	ejshelton	I know a lot but don't know who is in charge of the FB page. I may contact some others that know me
14-5 1:46:54	soccrdad30	yep, good try Ellen, to bad the locals passed the bacon
14-5 1:45:07	GNFan	It's worth a try.
14-5 1:44:01	soccrdad30	no, not really. I was hoping
14-5 1:41:30	ejshelton	I sent a message to the local NMRA. They said to contact National
14-5 1:40:40	rvn2001	Am I surprised?
14-5 1:40:15	soccrdad30	So far there has been no reply to my message on the NMRA post
14-5 1:37:22	DAZed	I would love nothing more Thom. I'm hopeful that this year will be less eventful. The remodel was really not awesome timing after the last two years of chaos but now I'm hoping to catch my breath
14-5 1:34:52	rvn2001	You just better get busy building that layout, Doug.
14-5 1:33:53	soccrdad30	Time is all what we want Doug
14-5 1:32:37	DAZed	I guess. Now I just need time to actually do something with all of these wonderful model trains.
14-5 1:32:29	GNFan	AZL (Rob K) knows my needs: GN.
14-5 1:31:34	rvn2001	They want as much of Doug's money as they can get.
14-5 1:31:08	GNFan	Someone at AZL heard you, Doug.
14-5 1:31:06	DAZed	at least I have until late next year and more likely 2028 before I have to fork over that expenditure.
14-5 1:30:13	DAZed	So yeah, I knew better than to think I was almost out of things to buy from AZL.
14-5 1:30:12	GNFan	That's what I'm here for, Thom.
14-5 1:28:29	rvn2001	Got me hook, line and sinker...
14-5 1:26:58	GNFan	A whale of a fish story, Doug!
14-5 1:26:13	rvn2001	I suspected that might be the answer but wanted someone with more info than me to explain.
14-5 1:25:52	DAZed	Mike, wait until you catch something!
14-5 1:25:31	DAZed	and when they first began running they were truly solid sets. And normally it is those first impressions that begat epic nicknames.
14-5 1:24:48	soccrdad30	Mike is on Fire!
14-5 1:24:26	GNFan	A 6800ft long worm? I'd hate to see the fish hook that goes with it!
14-5 1:24:06	DAZed	there are a few gray lease cars mixed into the train in the video which ruins the effect, but you get the idea.
14-5 1:22:55	DAZed	a 6800ft long worm
14-5 1:21:35	DAZed	basically, the BNSF cars are a dark reddish brown color, and BNSF ran them in mostly solid sets so it was just a massive long brown worm looking thing moving across the prairies.
14-5 1:20:35	DAZed	Thom, good question. I think a video is a good tool to use here... «link»
14-5 1:19:55	rvn2001	Nope...I had no choice.
14-5 1:19:28	DAZed	The autorack itself was even screaming at you to do it. The autorack, the eagle, your ZCS hecklers....you didn't stand a chance
14-5 1:19:18	rvn2001	Doug, why do they call the Trinity 5161 hoppers "Earthworms"?
14-5 1:18:31	ejshelton	Give Thom a suggestion and he jumps right in....
14-5 1:17:47	DAZed	Thom, I don't think I had much to do with it. You really had no other real choice here.
14-5 1:17:12	rvn2001	The Screaming Eagle was the appropriate logo to use.
14-5 1:15:22	rvn2001	You had a good suggestion, Doug.
14-5 1:14:51	DAZed	Thom, that is awesome. I see the pic now.
14-5 1:13:45	DAZed	how very meta of them
14-5 1:13:44	rvn2001	My Atlas auto rack now has MoPac decals.
