Gets a bit more awkward if that train has to BACK OUT of that tunnel in a big hurry.
Sometimes 'pop-off' in a tunnel can burn the engineer.

Brother, I don't think I could suffer a firmer tunnel. They must be different down south. Up here we can move a big train with just one good engine. 'Course you gotta know how to drive her.

Pete, no idea what you're referring to. [Har, har]

What the hell's going on in here?

Tramp · Postby **Tramp** » Sun Dec 05, 2004 9:04 pm

We're just talkin' railroading, Daisy. Can't you tell?

Of course, one pipe to my pop-off valve has been welded shut.
Does that make my boiler less, or more, dangerous?

I think it would keep you from getting up a full head of steam.

Daisy · Postby **Daisy** » Sun Dec 05, 2004 10:00 pm

I think I'm beginning to understand what you guys are all doing in your basements.

Read this in today's NY Times, no lie:
Homeland Security, with it's new NYPD vet leading the parade, is changing it's terrorist-alert-color-warning system.
Here's the changes:

green >
fuhgeddaboudit

blue >
how YOU doin'?

yellow >
Osama-THIS!

orange >
YOU TALKIN' to ME?

red >
@#*% ME?...@#*% YOU!!

Daisy, I'm kind of shocked as well at Tramp and Petey's childish behavior. I'm glad I have a more mature approach to model railroading.

Hey Tramp and Pete, Could this be called, "knocking the bottom out of it"? :lol:

Jon, don't be upset if you don't understand Peter and my highly technical writing at first. Believe it or not, I started with pictures at the beginning myself. Then my wife took away my camera. [Boo-hoo]

I see from the above photo that you're learning about Frenching.

The wife took your camera away, huh? One could only imagine wild things you were posting. :shock:

I for one hopes she'll give it back someday!!
By the way, I understand you guys. After all, you understand me, right?

Tramp · Postby **Tramp** » Mon Dec 06, 2004 2:11 pm

Jon! You know you're not allowed to wear the red suit in public! That's only for the SPECIAL meetings, remember? And I don't mean the Texas Special either.

We understand, Jon.

My people and myself thank you, both. I shall postpone the total destruction of the planet. But we really need some more Fuji film and need to know where we can shoot pix's of mass cleavage.
