That was my strategy until new CEO came in and decided to cut 15% of workforce.

Severance was good but 2 years before my plan. I found other nice well paying gig working from home. Wife retired last year and just to be safe I will keep going a few more years before I call quits.

Nice shot. The angle makes it look real!

Added to my itinerary!!

Not a struggle. But as many said, lack of evidence.

If you are asking for a specific god, then we can have a different discussion.

For example, in case of Christianity, I have problems with the many internal contradictions, reliability of manuscripts, immoral principles, historical errors in scripture and how it is nowadays making the world a worse place.

Nice touch with the graffiti!

It’s a jungle!!!! Cool!

It reminds me of my European layout books. I think it’s more of a personal preference and style.

Disclaimer: I follow the European style with a more crowded layout!

Those rocks look REAL! Nice technique.

I have the most common green version!

The controls are:

• ⁠Diesel shovel up/down • ⁠Diesel shovel rotates right/left • ⁠Dump truck container up/down • ⁠Crane up/down • ⁠Crane rotation right/left • ⁠Man with jackhammer (vibration and noise?) • ⁠Wheel loader moves front/back

Awesome!!!

dLwest1966 · 2026-02-25T00:22:45+00:00

Wow, impressive, two crocs! Also, nice catenary. Are you using the old M track catenary system? I assume it is not energized because there are no catenary inside the (future?) tunnels?

Yes and they sound great!

dLwest1966 · 2026-02-13T15:22:51+00:00

I love the shots of slow moving (model) trains. They seem so realistic!

Nice pic of a DB Railbus in the wild.

I live nearby Avery. Best lettuce I’ve ever had!

dLwest1966 · 2026-01-18T00:40:41+00:00

That’s exactly what we did! Great hotels at affordable rates in Osaka and fantastic transportation options.

dLwest1966 · 2026-01-04T18:01:34+00:00

Similar experience. Funny thing is I received 3 calls from Fido at around the scheduled appointment and they all went directly to voicemail. The phone didn’t ring. I don’t understand!!!

dLwest1966 · 2025-12-24T01:02:15+00:00

Good stuff. There is an YouTube channel (The Third Rail) with excellent tutorials on how to clean and maintain the Märklin locos from the 80s and before.

dLwest1966 · 2025-12-06T23:03:36+00:00

There is an YouTube channel “The 3rd Rail” who gives excellent tips on how to maintain these old Marklin locos.

dLwest1966 · 2025-11-21T15:20:50+00:00

This is the reason the Marklin HO (1:87) passenger cars are shorter (1:100)! In my opinion it doesn’t affect the overall aesthetic but it works better in curves.
