Daisy!! I had this dream last night!! You were this clubcar-rolling-high-plains-drifter-chick and I was this spacebar-toting-piano-playing-dingo-named-johnny-ringo. You said you would be my huckleberry. What the hell did that mean?

[Daisy]

You still have esp! I saw part of High Plains Drifter last night. I could watch that forever. Well as long as I was high plains drifting myself.

Hey, are those stars in that photograph? How beautiful! I love the moon and stars when it's still light out. Do you have much of that back on your home planet?

[2railjon]

Daisy, Unfortunately, not. There is alot of substitution for them ,revolving around abandoned jello molds, though.

PS: How's your piston, Daisy?

[Tramp]

Her pistons are fine, San. Haven't you noticed?

[San Diegan]

OK, but how is the master cylinder?

San

[Tramp]

That I don't know. I've never been a master of anything. Thank God.

[amalie]

Don't forget -
Mogul (4-6-0)
Pocono (4-8-4 on the Lackawanna)
Consolidation (2-8-0)
Big Six (B&O 6000-class)
Camelback
Heisler
and...
Climax.

Can I run the PS1 stuff in conventional model with the TMCC outfit - I know I ran my Lionel postwar with it. I was looking at the big MRC box since it has the meters built in.

[Tramp]

It amazes me how lovely most of the names are. There are very few I don't like. Isn't American one? Mikado and Consolidation I've never cared for.

[Daisy]

I kinda lackawanna pocono.

There is a certain cylinder I'd like to be mistress of.

[amalie]

The 4-4-0 class is the American. Also 2-10-0 is the Decapod and the 2-10-2 is the Santa Fe. Tramp -the two you don't care for (I assume name-wise) can be abbreviated down to Mike and Consol.

[2railjon]

Amalie, If you have a transformer that provides 16-18 volts all around your track, then you can hook up the tmcc to the outside rail and run your tmcc locos using the command. If you want to run your conventional engines, then use the transformer only. The tmcc wil not run convention engines unless it's hooked up through the 2 bricks and through a zw transformer. If I' am wrong please correct me, honest!

[Jackie Blue]

Damn! And here I thought I was in the Jungle. I'll just take my beer and nakedness elsewhere.

[amalie]

You're right Jackie, this is 'sposed to be the jungle. Sorry to go techie on you. So, enough work, lets have a few cold ones!...
