Large Scale Central

First Ever RGS Operating Session using TrainOps

Not exactly a buffet…the Giant super market has a Chinese take-out …we use it all the time.

Eggrolls?

Not as good as what we got in Ottawa, but they’ll do…:wink:

Sounds like the 2009 social schedule is already starting to fill in. ;-)

Eggrolls and trains, who could ask for anything more???

OK, maybe a napkin…

Ken,

Jan and I were looking at your article (http://www.largescalecentral.com/articles/view.php?id=103)
again this morning. And getting lost on a track plan. Do you have current schematic of the overall track plan? Those pictures are really good.

Nice article Ken - great pictures.

I don’t think I deserve any of the credit for getting you going on TrainOps. All I’ve been able to accomplish is to break it :smiley:

Jon,

Be humbled, but take the credit. If you don’t break it and screw it up, who would know what to fix? With all greatness, comes sacrifice. :wink:

Ric, sorry for the delay…I was out of town for a few days. here’s the layout schematic:

Well, Jon, you’ve been a big help since you know all this computer stuff…I know where the monitor is and where the keyboard is…:wink:

You know where your keyboard is? I haven’t been able to find mine under this huge pile of papers for weeks. Using that stupid mouse based keyboard is a real pain. Took me 15 minutes to type this.

Ken,

Thanks for the refresher. I had to get the grey matter wrapped around those pictures. The map helps.

Was there enough gray matter left once they were used to wrap the pictures?..:wink:

Ken,

You said - “Was there enough gray matter left once they were used to wrap the pictures?..”

You willl have to make your own judgement. Really it’s either ignorance or apathy, but I’m afraid I don’t know and I certainly dont’ care.

Jimmy Buffett fan? The song " I Don't Know and I don't Care" from Beach House on the Moon. Ralph

Ralph,
Heavy Parrothead for many years. I consider his songs as words to live by. Favorite songs, “Havana Day Dreamin” and “12 Volt Man”. Many miles put on the vehicles cruising to that music.

Thought so! We have another common interest. I've been going to Buffett shows since 1975. Favorites are hard to pick out of so many songs. But "Pirate Looks at Forty", "Tin Cup Chalice" and "Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season" have to be near the top. My family has been instructed to play "Beyond the End" (with Roy Orbison) at my funeral :cool: All eight of our children can sing along to almost every song. But all claim to dislike the music. If I notice them singing along, they immediately stop. After all, nothing the "old man" likes can be cool :lol: Ralph

My two also know the words to most of the songs and refuse to say they like it. Grandkids are being indoctrinated everytime we take them, anywhere. The grandkids are addicted to the DVD player, so I put on a live concert DVD and they eventually fall asleep, but they are still listening. :wink: subbliminal persuasion.

You can imagine the looks I got as a teenager in Detroit, listening to Jimmy Buffett and Jerry Jeff Walker :smiley:

Hope you just told them it is “White Man’s Regae”. That would be understood. All of life is eventually on “island time”.

It’s 5 o’clock somewhere… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ib8nH4kHjxk
