Hobo Jungle

[P&R Pete]

Notice you don't see where San's right hand is. I'd have that hobo 'glint' myself.
Nice picture! (Cute babe!)

Hey, I'm game. I e-mailed Jon couple of hours ago, see if he'd throw it on for me, since I don't know how to get pictures on here. Haven't heard back. Probably on a beer run.

And Trampy, *ahem*... crowd might like to see behind those Foster-Grants.
(Then again, maybe not...)

Pete!! Sorry, You should have my email address waitin' on Ya!!
I've been cleaning up the train room seeing as William ("Acid" from the OGR forum) is coming over to run trains!!
I'd be happy to post it!

[2railjon]

This just off the press from Petey!!! He's titled it: Beauty And The Beast!!!!

[San Diegan]

Holy moly, Petey. You two are a good looking couple. The Redhead's a looker. I can hear Tramp's wolf whistles from down East all the way out here on the West Coast.

And I hoped no one would be offended that I called the redhead "the beast".

[San Diegan]

Cruisin' for a bruisin', Petey? Does she know about this post? Mrs. Diegan would be astounded to learn that there are others in this hobby who stay in relationships. I'll give her a lot of credit for having patience with me.

Jon, "Acid" seems like a cool character. You guys have a good running session and don't run the expensive stuff if you've been drinkin'.

Jon, I'm about to run trains. Got everything set up. On second beer. The Santa Fe 3751 was the last to hit the rails. Call me a fool, but I'm gonna try 'em.


As an aside, isn't interesting that the older statesman, most prolific poster, general poster boy of this forum is HirailJon. Think of who it is on OGR. Now that, IS FOCKING FUNNY.

Wow!! When you look at Petey's redhead, all I can think of is "cradle robber"!! She's a beauty!!

William (Acid) and his adorable "mother to be" wife were a blast!! It's wonderful the people that you never would have met, can touch your life from a forum!! Acid loved your reefer, Tramp!!! I had a nice train book for his Christmas present and for his wife I suprised her with a 1/2 gallon of chocolate chip ice cream!!!
One weird thing, though. After about an hour of running the trains in TMCC mode, they just stopped responding to signals or started creeping down the tracks by themselves. Any ideas? It's kinda scary!!!!

[P&R Pete]

Thanks, guys. Sometimes, even a scurfy hobo gets lucky, and hits the Jackpot of Destiny. That'd be my case, with Kimberly.

LOL, Jon. I have all but 13 years on her. She must have thought I was rich, poor deluded woman!!

Jon, I share your sentiments about this forum bringing people together. I wrote a half-assed poem about it when I first got on this Jungle.

Tramp, one of your steamers, can't remember which one, has a whistle so lonesome that it will tear a hobo's heart out. When you get your trains running, give that handle a long pull, and when I hear it through the fog and the chill, I'll raise my tin caboose cup to you.

[Tramp]

Pete, may I call you and give you a listen?

[P&R Pete]

Tramp, I'm on the road, won't be home til midnight. I got my lantern lit in the gloom, trying to find Stiff and Dufus. Thought I heard they were across this yard, somewhere.

I'll be by the lineman's phone most of tomorrow though, 'cept for running here and there to scrounge up some grub. Love to hear that whistle, no matter how much it hurts.

[Tramp]

Some kinds of pain are good.


I sent a photo to Jon to post--you ******.

Hey. Thanks so much you guys for posting your pictures, it's so great, truly, to see your lovely actual selves, and lovely actual wives. Happy New Year to each of you.

And Tramp? I'd love to hear that whistle too. Especially if it's as lonesome as Pete says.

[2railjon]

Brother!! I'm particularly honored to have the distiction of revealing not one, but two of our 'bo's this day!!! Here's Tramp, minus the shades, and he says ladies this one is for you!!!

[Daisy]

Mmmmmmmm.
