Well its that time of year and Monday night why I was working on my lights this guy stops by and asked if it was ok to do a story on my lights. I told him shure but that they would not be on and ready untill Thursday. He told me he was doing a story on setting them up and getting ready. Here it what ran Monday night on the News.

yes I am milking my 15 minutes. He also said he was going to come back when they were going and do a fallow up story. I hope to have the trains running them as well.

Come Join us for some after Thanksgiving feast and get ready or primed for the next big holiday Christmas.

Slightly OT, but our little group of 7.25" gauge, 1/3rd scale live steamers will be setting up at 6.30 saturday morning in the Great Whyte of a local market town, Ramsey. We do this every year, and provide train rides under steam all day for the locals, just as we have done for the last fifteen years. Any money we raise goes to a local charity/-ies - a typical day’s takings will be around $2000.

Of course, there are all sorts of other things going on - a Christmas market and a brass band and all that kind of stuff, as well as the usually busy scenes in Great Whyte - the principal ‘high street’ of the town. For those with any interest in our little line, we have a recently-produced web-site, courtesy of one of our computer literate members, Dave Langford - www.fenlandlightrailway.co.uk

The grey and yellow-striped dismal belongs to the tac famb, BTW.

Best to all this Thanksgiving and near Hanukah!

Ok Fellers! Regal here the “live” show from Geoff’s house tomorrow nite is on schedule, and we are going to attempt to do a “live” segment from there tomorrow nite on my “livestream” channel. So come join us for some “after Thanksgiving” fun and let’s get ready for the next two big ones. Livestream has changed our channels around so you may have to clik on one or the other of these two links below not sure which one will bring you to our show??? Try both and see. Along with Geoff lighting his lights on his neighborhood, Noel will be doing a segment on leds too!! So tomorrow nite at 7pm MST check both sites and see which one you can use If we’re lucky both will work. You know How “CHANGE” is. The Regal

Not to worry.
If it was any part of the Government you needed to worry about…you wouldn’t know they visited.
