That.... is.... awesome.

Slow clap.

Did you photoshop them or were they real calendars or something in the shops?

Must be Wye Week.  I'm also doing some upgrades on the Rosa Wye modules, extending double track to the East.


I like to work quick and dirty.   :D

This graphic should be a banner image instead. Less chance of my wife seeing it and banning me from TRW.  :trollface:

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

I started my next 2mm Finescale locomotive. It is a London and South Western M7 class 0-4-4T. Now I have to sit on my hands for a couple of weeks until the wheels and gears show up.



Here's the prototype:

Great work this week guys!
Garet, that's amazing,
Wolf, your layout is really coming together very nicely. Is that a model of the Cucamonga gas station? Very cool!
It has recently been restored and is used as a Route 66 museum of sorts...I live up the street from it.

Nice touch on the "Southern Pacific" on the crossbucks!  8)  Is that a custom decal?
