Hey @WildcatBelle
How long have you been reading this board again? Not everyone picks up on the train pics lol

Does anyone remember who the knucklehead was who came up with the idea to post pics with numbers? It didn't sit too well with some.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 80°F. We expect at a high of 94°F later.
@Bert Higginbotha : Looking at visiting on July 1 around 4 PM. I'll be coming from Pangburn, AR.
I've got nothing else. Y'all behave.

Trains, I LOVE them. Train sounds, whistles and horns. Train music. Grew up next them. That's where we played. On the tracks, in the train yards. When I got lost following my 2nd grade flame home from school after stealing a kiss in the coatroom, I heard the train, and followed the tracks until recognized the surroundings and walked home. Thirsty, tired & smarter.

Morning D. Grinding out a final work week before we bring my son to Lexington for his freshman orientation. Looking forward to that.
Be careful, that handle is hot.80°➫ 110° Clear, Hot, & Dry.

Morning update: I don’t want to bring politics to the thread but I thought you all might find it interesting that I just had the opportunity to vote for Chelsea Manning for US Senator.
I won’t reveal my choice but I can say in ultra-liberal Montgomery County Maryland a transgender felon, schizophrenic traitor wasn’t even the worst candidate I spotted on the ballot. The sitting do-nothing knee-jerk lefty senator is hardly more appealing.

Happy Anniversary.

Happy Anniversary to you both!
Morning D
Been up for a while
Lots of good reading on here today
I tend to forget we’re not all close to the same age. That’s a compliment to you fellas.
@MdWIldcat55 ...this is probably the one place you can say something political and not get trashed for your viewpoint
Appreciate all the nice comments about my mom and me
I’m not nervous about UK basketball....yet. But I sure wish the season was here.
I like trains

Good Tuesday D. Another rainy/stormy day on tap it would seem. We even had a tornado warning yesterday as a storm came over from Edmonson/Grayson counties into Hart County. It was well defined on radar for a bit, but seemingly produced only rain and a little wind here. It did produce a very small waterspout/tornado on Nolin lake.
Thanks BKO. And we old fossils appreciate you not holding our age against us.
I figured I was safe with a non-PC remark about Chelsea Manning here. Maryland politics are bizarre. I can't see a transgender convicted of a felony for committing treason against the US who has admitted to mental illness as part of a defense strategy getting on the ballot in Kentucky.
Gooday, D!
(I appreciate the locomotives)
How in the world is Chelsea Manning even allowed to run for anything, and who put her up to that? That is weird.

These old steam engines are my favorites. My daddy worked for the ICRR for about 30 years. I worked for them too back in the day on the Barkley Dam Project.
Congrats. Happy Anny!
Well, train, train, take me on out of this town
Train, train, Lord, take me on out of this town
Train, train, Lord, take me on out of this town
Happy Anniversary 55Wildcat and MRS.55. Hope it 's wonderful and enjoy!
Well Good Morning to all. I've got to get some more coffee. Has anybody seen FCC ? Well I'll admit I miss him, no one else to pick on. Storms and then periods of sun and back to storms in Paducah. Have a good one everyone.

You bet your sweet bippy as Rowan & Martin used to say.
Then you have probably heard this one before and forgive me if already posted before I joined in the thread:
It's not my place to run the train
The whistle I can't blow.
It's not my place to say how far
The train's allowed to go.
It's not my place to shoot off steam
Nor even clang the bell.
But let the damn thing jump the track
And see who catches hell.
Dang Rooster you are quick!
Heavy Thunderstorm here right now
We’re under tornado warning
Sirens in town going off
I hate this kind of weather

I have it memorized. And what is really bad, is that the railroad, at the least mine, was like the military; if something went wrong it was someones fault.
We have a rail crew here at Ft. Sill for loading and moving army equipment to a site to be connected into by contracted train lines and taken to ports or distant training areas. I worked with them a lot when I worked at the unit movement office. From loading rail cars to switching tracks and coupling and uncoupling cars.I have it memorized.

Afternoon folks. Been to the hospital since early this morning. The wife had an elective surgery to remove a cyst from her neck. We got back home just before noon.
At noon we had a big thunderstorm and it dumped on us. We got nearly an inch in thirty minutes. Coming back from the hospital it was 92 degrees on my cars thermometer. So there was a lot of energy to work with.
@ymmot31 Austin plans on being here at 4pm August 1. You are welcome as I need help in beating him up! Also the stainless steel 18" x 18" schedule 40 is cut and hopefully delivered to my house tonight.

Was the cyst a problem? Curious because I have a lump on the right side of mine and the doctors at the Hospital at Sill said that as long as it did not hurt or grow any larger it was really no problem. Not the words my wife was wanting to hear.
Gooday, D!
