Buried in there was mention of 1776 paint schemes from CN and CPKC.  I wondered what these look like and found this for CN 1776 https://www.railwayage.com/freight/class-i/first-look-cn-1776-cn-2026/ WOW! The screaming eagle is amazing, I need one!  2026, not so much.

CN 1776 is perfect. It took a Canadian railroad to show how it’s done.

Well... I had been saying I needed more BN cars. Supporting the return of weathered releases isn't a bad way to do it.

WOW!  That's really ancient! Haha :D

I can say that since I was born in 1949.  Turned 77 on May 30th!  Spent the day crawling around under the newly set up layout getting it leveled up and answering calls from friends and family!  Had a great day!

Cheerio!

Bob:  Congratulations on your birthday, and on being able to crawl around under the layout.

I hope I will at 77.  Still in good shape so far.
