Ray, have not done any running outdoors this year. Chompin at the bit to go. Have the piles of wet leaves cleared so it wont take long for first run, maybe an hour. ........Jim

Here is one of the last MTH's produced and it is a bute..............Jim

Here is a little thing I picked up at the ECLSTS...............Jim

Raymond, yes you may post those pics. The flat cars are USAT and they came with the aircraft. They came with no nuckle couplers and there is no mounting pad for Kadees if that is your thing...............Jim

Some pics of the show. https://plus.google.com/photos/109450470389782260686/albums/5859231291722588785?banner=pwa Some items I took home. YES, I still have my Christmas Tree................Jim

I signed up for one. The one at the show is not finished and will have more detail when finished. $3,800 with sound. Will run on 8 foot diameter curves, this is accomplished witha blind driver...............Jim

Anyone try the passive mode with the TIU attached remotely away from power supply, it works. I also ran REVO equiped trains on same track and they play well together......................Jim

Two more, PRR SD-45's. Real plain paint scheme but they look like they came to work...................Jim

Raymond, thanks for the idea for the flags because I thought they were, well not very good looking...................Jim

Joe, according to his Web page, RLD will be there. Good thing because he seams to be the most active dealer handling product..............Jim

I'll be there both days. My one son and grand son will be with me. This maybe the first year where I do little shopping because I don't think there will be much product available, old or new. Just my opinion, I have been wrong before.....................Jim

Great, now you can listen to my Pennsylvania Dutch...............Jim

Like those pumkins..................Jim

These were hard to find. One I got from a Dealer (RLD) who found it way back in is storage area and did not know he had one. The other one I got on Ebay, brand new, in box.

Now, lets continue with "Show me your Trains". Here is the first test run of the MTH Big Boy.

Here Ya go Joe. No, I'm not a snow bird, I go for vacation and to visit my parents and spend a day running trains with Ed Headington. I hate to fly and driving Int State 95 is really getting bad so I take the train and love it....................Jim https://picasaweb.google.com/Trainman24/AmtrakAutoTrain https://picasaweb.google.com/Trainman24/05022010FloridaVacation

Joe, I get to ride the real thing 2 times a year. I take the Amtrak autotrain to Florida. It is the longest passenger train in the world. Mywife and I stay in a sleeper car. Great ride and food.........Jim

Could kick my self for not buying a pair of Genesis with 5 passenger cars when they were very available and some what inexpensive. Nice! Ray, you are as bad as my wife putting 1800 lights on the Christmas tree. Impressive! .....................Jim

Little late but here is 2012 Christmas indoor layout......................Jim

Just finished installing Revo Diesel in my PRR F1 ABA, one in each unit. Interesting the way it operates. You need to scroll thru each loco in the MU with the bottom left key on transmitter and turn on each unit and set sound level. After that. the only loco that has horn and bell sound is lead engine. Will be interesting to see this beast pull 60 2 bay hoppers. The Revo's did not plug properly into P 'n' P. A capacitor is in the way of the end with the plug that is not used so no big deal, just seat the plug that counts. The B unit did not have speaker so I added one and to my surprise each A unit had the new SD-45 smoke units...................Jim

Aristo 1:24 scale Pacific Slope C-16 with Aristo classic couches......................Jim

Here we have an Aristo BNSF Dash 9 with Santa Fe SD-45 both with red and silver war bonnet paint scheme...................Jim

Wonder what is the minimum curve it can handle.........Jim
