Morning all,

Up to me huh! Okay, let's open it up. One more week until the kit box openings.

Have a great day.

Tom  ;D

Good morning.


Tom, thanks for opening.


I expected to wake up to some snow but there is none.  Gee, I'm so sad. ;) ;)


Some outside work planned for today, still working to winterize the water in the barn. 


Everyone have a safe and productive day!

Morning,

All this saw dust from decorating is getting old, I can't wait until it is done.

Morning! No plans today, probably will split time between the bench and working around the house.

Good morning Tom and those that follow! We are getting a little snow here this morning.  Enough to make things white - we will see if it lasts until Christmas.  I'm working on the electrical system in Superior Yard - developed a short during operations and I'm searching for the right combination of turnout throws that will reproduce it.  Very strange because
I don't get it every time.  I may have a problem with one of the reversing boards. So I will be spending my day testing and retesting etc. etc. I hope everyone has a great day. From the F&SM:

Good Morning Folks;

I had good news yesterday, I've been cleared to go on our Christmas Cruise with friends and family. I'm not back to 100% but good enough to find a chair with a view. So today we will pack up. I would like to finish up a build project on bench but we will see. Hope everyone has a great day.

Jim,

Great news on being cleared for the family trip. I didn't post this but I was declared free of the Ecoli Bacteria on Thursday. Surgery is now Jan. 6, 2022.

Morning all,

Good news Jim and Tom.  Enjoy the chair with a view on the cruise Jim.

I'll try to spend some time at the workbench this afternoon/evening.  :D

Passed my first normal fever check this morning. One more tonight and I finish COVID quarantine! Tired of all the resting. Got stuff I want to get done!
Enjoy your day, folks.

Morning, all

Glad to hear folks are feeling better.  Just a dusting of snow here this morning.  It was in the 70s on Wednesday.   :o I'm headed to the train room for clean up patrol.

Very glad to hear the positive health reports. We all need to end this year on an upbeat note. (My daughter would berate me for that terrible music pun).

Here's a crummy I spotted while taking a break from the Interstate highway:

Happy to hear good health news (for a change...)  We still don't know if we'll be able to travel as planned in January, depends on whether our destination shuts down. 


I'm pondering something for the winter build.  I guess I could just enter the set of B&M boxcars once I start the production build.

Agreed, so good to hear people are feeling better, recovering and at least getting rested.

Today is my big Christmas cookie baking day.  I have my apron on and am churning out many dozens of family favorites.

Enjoy the day, everyone.
