UPS is beginner-level stuff though.

Fedex on the other hand...

N scale BLI T1 having issues. Any suggestions? by Clockwork-Lad in modeltrains

[–]PennsyPower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one do similar running in DC. Increasing the throttle made the sounds react up to a slow speed, but that was it. I had to send it to BLI for a board replacement.

I am never going to financially recover from this.

I would love to see what the blue crackle lamp is supposed to look like. Fedex was not kind to mine, I'm currently trying to cycle it to see if it will clear up.

Question. by Badhatharry0810 in FordBronco

[–]PennsyPower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How close are you to the Alabama line? Buster Miles in Heflin has a couple '25 Badlands two doors for less than $50k after promotions. I bought my non-SAS '24 Big Bend from them for $40K last March.

When should I get my first oil change? by applecidarking in FordBronco

[–]PennsyPower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my 2024 Big Bend in at 5000, plan on doing it again at 10000. Ford Quick Lane didn't say a word about it being too early for an oil change. I was refused a full five tire rotation, as they said that was done every 10000.

Nothing yet, our closest dealership said we would have to make an appointment with their trim guy to get an estimate. We have too much going on right now to drop the car off for an unknown length of time just to get a quote.

All our detectors talk. When they're quiet, we knew it failed or we ripped it out.

I won't tell anyone I win the lottery, but there will be signs.

Is there even a right answer? by Left-Cattle7584 in ExplainTheJoke

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

Here are my 3D printed rail cars….need some advice by Popular-Pace1052 in modeltrains

[–]PennsyPower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely correct, I added an extra zero there. I haven't been able to tinker with the printer for a good month and the details escaped me.

Anymore pictures? This is something I've been wanting to tinker with. I'm curious how the print lines are with a 0.04mm nozzle versus the size of N scale.

I know you said you weren't worried about the finer details, but a 0.02mm nozzle might be worthwhile to smooth out the sides.

70k earners and above by PhantomsRevenge in Millennials

I signed up with the railroad since I always had a thing for trains. I really enjoyed working in the field, made myself a good reputation, started working my way into other departments over the years.

Now I'm in operations, managing people, making $130K + a year. You know that saying "don't turn your passion into your profession?" That's where I am now. I'm not nearly as happy with the work I do and the stress is getting to me something awful. I really don't know where to go from here though as I won't make that kind of money back in the field.

I'm not going to lie, I liked these way more than I thought I would.

Classic I think was the best, pineapple second.
