14-12 18:27:55 soccrdad30 I was looking yesterday morning while I was eating my breakfast of hot oatmeal
14-12 18:27:06 rvn2001 I didn't know how big they were.
14-12 18:26:56 soccrdad30 I was being nosey to see if you knew them Mike
14-12 18:25:56 GNFan I'll look anyway. :-}
14-12 18:25:43 soccrdad30 one of them would fill up his apartment
14-12 18:25:19 rvn2001 Maybe one...or two... might fit in your table, Mike.
14-12 18:25:05 soccrdad30 they are not cheap... in the 2,000.00 range
14-12 18:24:35 GNFan Thanks, John. I'll have a look.
14-12 18:24:09 soccrdad30 Mike, on ebay there are some Z layouts for sale from your home state
14-12 18:22:19 soccrdad30 no more yard work here, we have 8" of snow on the ground
14-12 18:22:07 DAZed but after Thursday I only have to work 3 days until Jan 2nd.
14-12 18:21:46 soccrdad30 I am planning on a day for decaling 3 C&O covered 2-bay hoppers, the decals from K4
14-12 18:21:38 DAZed yeah, this week is busy all around for me....work, yard project, Christmas shopping, etc.
14-12 18:20:13 soccrdad30 I won't have much time for Z this week, working on Christmas gifts and wrapping
14-12 18:19:22 soccrdad30 I don't have much in BN train cars but I do have a few weathered cars that would look good behind the switcher
14-12 18:19:20 DAZed )
14-12 18:19:16 DAZed I got another pair of layout layers laminated together on Friday. The remaining two will be temporarily tacked into place until I get some for design details worked out. (for example, the exact location of the Trinity River, the exact layout of three underpasses, etc.
14-12 18:18:03 soccrdad30 covered hoppers
14-12 18:17:52 soccrdad30 I have some ps2 2-bay hoppers that would look great pulling them
14-12 18:16:59 DAZed it's a beaut...
14-12 18:15:43 soccrdad30 that BN switcher will be my Christmas present to myself
14-12 18:13:57 soccrdad30 it would be a popular model
14-12 18:13:31 rvn2001 They're certainly better than the flying ones.
14-12 18:13:15 DAZed Con-Cor did a nice one in N that I almost bought.
14-12 18:12:55 DAZed Galloping Geese are fun.
14-12 18:12:32 DAZed they are appropriate for my locale and era and still were active until 2011.
14-12 18:12:15 soccrdad30 now if... Rokuhan could make a galloping goose to fit their chassis...
14-12 18:10:47 soccrdad30 the RDC's look nice but no interest in having one
14-12 18:09:35 DAZed I still will probably get the RDC's too
14-12 18:09:21 soccrdad30 yep, he said orders placed up to the 20th will be shipped out
14-12 18:09:14 DAZed I don't love the Bethgon-SD45 mashup but I'm trying to see if there is any interest in the Conrail SD45's. If I can sell them I may pickup the PJNX cars.
14-12 18:08:44 rvn2001 Remember Anthony's vacation schedule, John.
14-12 18:08:23 soccrdad30 I saw a bunch of demos from the car modellers, and wondered if it would work for us Z scalers
14-12 18:07:31 soccrdad30 Doug, I am giving him till next friday, then if not I am buying one from Anthony, a BN
14-12 18:07:01 DAZed great idea
14-12 18:06:34 soccrdad30 yes it is Doug
14-12 18:06:32 DAZed maybe not John, there is still 2 weeks left
14-12 18:06:21 soccrdad30 he has way too much other stock he needs to clear out
14-12 18:06:11 DAZed never thought of that. I have the Microscale mask stuff
14-12 18:05:51 DAZed So is the liquid latex a masking trick?
14-12 18:05:44 soccrdad30 Doug, I don't think Rob will have any switchers on sale.. I am giving up hope
14-12 18:04:30 soccrdad30 I added a bunch of photos to the home page the past few days
14-12 18:03:54 soccrdad30 about same as us on our weather Thom
14-12 18:03:28 rvn2001 Hi John. You've been a busy little boy... :D
14-12 18:03:22 soccrdad30 yes, very chilly here too!
