“Does your husband suffer from mental illness?” “Oh no, he quite enjoys it!” 
What I did with the rest of the HLW switcher I used the drive block from to make the Steam Dummy, rebuilt onto a HLW Mack chassis. 
Sad to say but this may be the last locomotive I build for a while 
, I need to finish off what I have already started and then shift focus from the workbench to the layout.
Cool.

My friend, you suffer from OCD; obsessive creative desires. The prognosis for this disease are good though as long as you avoid stressful situations like, taking out the trash, going to work, or doing household choirs and focus purely on finishing your models and layouts
Richard, I agree and Vic’s latest colour scheme is a beauty! :lol:

Trust me, the explaining will take a lucid moment.

hehe And I have 2 bottles of pills to prove it
Tom, That is a serious problem, one bottle should be enough!
One pill makes you smaller
and one pill makes you tall
and the ones that mother gives you
dont do anything at all
Go ask Torby, when he’s 10 feet tall…
Hans, you drink that bottle

That’s a great line. My mother-in-law recently mentioned that she loved the outdoor trains. My wife just shrugged and rolled her eyes knowing I did not need any more encouragement. I suspect this is exactly what she was thinking at the time.

Reality is for people who can’t deal with running trains out of doors!
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
