How on earth do you go from complacency on rolling stock availability for your original choice of railroad with a focus on industrial ops to the WM and its still obvious ops potential but easier modelability, to the WP?

They both have "W"

So does 'Waffle".

I take it, as the FNG here, waffling is a normal thing?? Maybe the name should be WaffleWire?

Waffling is not a normal thing for most of us .. Maybe we should be a waffle free zone

[sirenwerks]

Either that, or we should apply to Eggo for financial support, considering they're getting so much free marketing from Steve.

WP is the next Class I after WM.  you guys are so easy to get riled up.  i'm very pleased with the prototype, the operational aspects, and the track plan.  i'm sticking with this.  if anyone gives me anymore static, i'll start running Chessie power on the line - i don't think could take much of that...

Static as in static display, as in no trains running?

No 6-axle diesels on the WP.

That's not a good thing.

It's one of the beauties of the Western Pacific, actually. N scale WP modelers are only two locos away from a perfect roster (still need U30Bs and Alco S units, but they're likely to come sooner rather than later). Rolling stock's a challenge, but that gives practice in the modeling aspect of MRRing. And there's nothing like a lash-up of silver and orange Geeps and Fs running through the magnificent desert, river canyon, and rolling hillside, golden grass scenery that lay west of SLC. There was six-axle power before the yellow takeover if you must spoil the image, but all foreign road - UP SD40s in pool service from the east and BN, GN & NP SD45s and SP&S C636s from the north.

Rome was not built in a day.  keep it up and you might find a F7 painted up in Chessie on your lawn!

if i were to model CP, it would be in the Roger's Pass area.  but i'm not, i'm modeling WM in the Connellsville area.
