Thanks Healey! That's the plan. That's the plan.

Thanks Healey! That's the plan. That's the plan.

Yes, live life to the fullest - live the hobby to the fullest, and creating and crafting, as you are, is a really good way to treat yourself to some well-deserved FUN. Bravo for you, sir!

OK, since inquiring minds want to know...

What will be saved for the next version of the PRR Panhandle:

• Switches (switch machines, pushbuttons)
• Track and Vinylbed roadbed
• Electrical hardware (wire looms, terminal strips, screws)
• Buildings / structures
• Benchwork hardware (screws, supports, glides, bolts, etc.)
• Transformer cart

What will definitely NOT be saved:

• Benchwork lumber
• Wiring distribution panels
• Foam

Probably most of the wiring will be discarded. We'll see how that pans out.

See now, if you had just gone with DCS, you could keep your layout where it is and run weefeeking engines with your video monitor and keyboard from your new location. It's all in volume 3 of the BOOK.

Yeah, what was I thinking?

Actually, I'm waiting for the version of DCS that supports VR (virtual reality). That's even better than wi-fi.

I've got it on pre-order.

Actually, that thought about a DCS pre-order reminded me of this. Trivia Question: Anybody remember where it came from?

The black one with "Laugh while you can monkey boy" on the back?

I had one as a teen and a couple of years ago found someone was making them again. I wore it to a Boeing space capsule engineering meeting and I got a lot of handshakes and slaps on the back from the people really making stuff that's going into space. Many of them were fans of the movie and a lot of them wanted a shirt like that!

You need to get to the computer or phone and get the black one!

It took over 4 months to get the one I have - I'm not going back there for a shirt, even with a working overthruster.....
