Clark, Joe, et. al.: I had one slow evening last night, but the task requires more than one evening. It looks like you'll have to wait until you return, Clark,...
Louis, when do I qualify as an old geezer? I have been known to do crazy things for a long time, before kids. Thanks for the info, I think this might be a...
... Louis, Wish I had my photos as much in order as you seem to have. Thanks for your research, it is fun to see what the differences were and wonder why ...
Well, Vern, if I were as organized as you suggest I'd have had the whole thing done by now and you wouldn't have to wait until next week for it. There will...
... I have been researching photos of RS-1's, S-1's and S-2's of as many other railroads as I could find and have found that all of the walkways of the RS-1's...

The frogs are coming, but it will be just a little later toward the end of the week. My week has been a litttle busier than I had planned. I'm tweeking the...
Well, I've gone about a far as I can or want to go on this subject so here's the report. BTW, Joe, if you want to put this on Cash's site we should add the...

Frog alert: Here's part three. I'll do the RS1s and see how much more I feel like doing tonight. Remember there were no frogs until after renumbering. I have...
Well, gang, here's the final installment of frogs. I know, why doesn't this guy get a life? Anyway we'll finish with the SDs and the GP9s. All the Geeps had...
Thanks, Doug. I hope Joe is absorbing the info. I think Clark is still up in Canada drowning leaches (can you drown a leach?) Anyway I sent the last...
Louis, I'm back. Leaches need clean water or they will drown in their own excrement. We went through 20 dozen minnows. I will need time to digest your info. If...
Nice to know Clark survived, even if the minnows didn't. Never did understand why anyone would want to stand in a mass of mosquitoes waiting for a fish, when...
Hey Clark: were those live minnows or the frozen kind that you can use in a sandwich when the sardines run out? Hope the fishing was good. Louis Nice to know...
I had to use the Pink Floyd line as a subject. This group has 316 members yet no one has mentioned the nice piece Ted Culotta did on the M&StL USRA box cars...
Clark: thanks for the tip. I stopped all my modeling mag subscriptions a couple years ago. Guess I miss a few things but that's the risk. Used to get to the...
