A mallet and a pipe organ? Mike how about a picture? Me? I'll probably get the usual lump of coal. Happy Holidays, Jim CCRR:unsure:

Yes Jim,
Your coal sack should be arriving from me any moment now. This will save Gayle from buying you the usual she normally gives you.....Ha.

Just talked with Lee Barry back East and I told him he should have you make a layout for him similar to what you are doing for Mike. Lee doesn't have email so print some pictures out and send to him.

Merry Christmas
Loren

Not Z I regret to say, but see

www.spurweite-n.de/content/NDBSearch/ArtikelDetails.asp?ID=3924&DoLog=0&Sel_Bezeichnung_VString=&Sel_Gesellschaft_FString=&Sel_Baureihe_VString=&Sel_MitBild_Bool=&Sel_Hersteller_FString=Arnold&Sel_ArtikelNr_VString=0249&Sel_ORDERBY=Bezeichnung&Sel_Epoche_FString=&Sel_Gattung1_FString=&Sel_Gattung2_FString=&ToShow=1&MaxCount=2

(I hope that works. You may have to stitch it all together with a series of copy-and-pastes.)

Anyway, a happy Christmas to all and a prosperous new year (so that you can buy lots of Z scale trains),
Chris.

Also little z here, just the long wanted second 8772 to repaint as Czech InterCity. Long wanted Czech TT sleeper wagon with Prague skyline. Might be a nice Z conversion sometime, although I am delighted to have it in TT. Also some N passenger wagons from grandpa for Alinda.

I got those pretty UP engines (I just cant bring myself to have them repainted) and I think a couple of MOPAC jeeps are on their way soon.!! Those will be my first US made engines and I think my rail road will run a lot smoother now.

I'll have you know I bought the best coal I could find for my dollar fifty......cheap indeed.

Only the finest will suffice.:laugh:

since there may be small kiddies reading this forum, I would like to ask admin to remove this thread - undermining the belief in Father Christmas, Santa Claus (or whatever you call him) should be forbidden ;)

Chris, I would, but I don't think I should. Probably even Santa buys himself a present! As for kiddies reading our postings, probably not. The only member we have at this stage that even remotely believes in Santa is probably Loren. If you are referring to (xmas) I agree. I did try to change it, but we are not allowed titles that long. Santa will alway be real to me. So enjoy your presents and worry not. Cheers, Jim CCRR:S

I will secod that, no way to prevent kiddies to read this thread. I didn't buy anything for X-mas yet
And I won't do any serious buying before next weekend, because I don't know what I will get for my birthday. I only know that my son is doing some secret stuff in Z...

GreetingZ, HilZen,

Uwe

Ellen and Thom came down for vacation, and after running trains in their modules, we went shopping. Ellen bought two train sets and a F7 set, and Thom bought a insiders train set. Between them, they must have spend over a thousand Dollars. Since I am the poor one of the group, I bought a pack of leds to light up my buildings.

I bought 32' of hard board (homoste) to complete the back drops on the home layout. I also purchased another roll of cork for the road bed. This may not sound exciting, but I am happy just to have some time to work on the layout!

Happy New Year!
Rob

I didn't exactly buy this for myself for Christmas, but it arrived close enough that I though I would share this with you. I just painted it. Decals later. The loco is one of Lajos' SW-1's. Thank you Lajos. Cheers, Jim CCRR
