Is the Memorial Train going to make it to Timonium this weekend to run on the Bantrak layout?

And if so, is that going to be a hand-off point from the Western to Eastern Shore contingent of the DMV?

Just curious how much time I should commit to scenery construction this week.

I was also wondering if the Bantrak was going to host, if perhaps the DMV power pool could take turns at the point...  I'll need to do some running maintenance on a couple of LRV units if that's the case...




Lee,
 Your welcome to run on my line in the afternoon. sometime between 1-3pm. I'll be running the stone train, mix of WM and LV.

I know I am not on the official schedule for Maryland. But a flag stop on the Lauraville & Western would be appreciated.

I'm sure that can be arranged.

Alternate version:

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

Shouldn't it be "3M" instead of "M cubed?"

Back in the day when I built spacecraft for a living, one of the projects I worked on was M3S, or Multi-Mission Modular System. So for me, I thought of M3T instead of 3MT.  Either way, I wanted a shorthand version for typing...
