Hev, LOL!
With your arm in the picture, you're the only one who makes that behemoth look normal-sized!

Jon, congrats on the ebay win!
Man, I'd love to see that whacked-out layout of yours up close and personal. And those crane sounds oughta be awesome!

Speaking of ebay, I recently won a 1916 employee timetable for the Susquehanna Bloomsburg & Berwick Railroad, another local shortline that crossed my local, (the Bloomsburg & Sullivan Railroad), about 4 miles south of here. It had maybe all of 8 stops on it's itinerary. This sucker has to be scarcer than a full beer at Hev or Jon's house on a Sunday morning!!
I'm thrilled!!
Bejeebus, the simple sh*t that keeps us hobos happy, now how 'bout it!!
But that's how it is with hobos.

Hev,

LOL, :lol: :D :o

Thanks for the loan of a Big Bertha race car. I think I can beat those other dudes.
It was not too long ago that I borrowed Jay Leno's tank car and beat Jon who was driving a tank.

I don't know how they do it. Shit........just takin pics I could feel the heat off the blacktop. ................I did offer the Bro's a brew but they had to decline................... :cry: ..........not that they didn't want some.......... :D

And the B61 Mack is owned and operated by a friend of mine. He washes that truck every night after he is done workin' with it. That truck is a workhorse and runs better than some of this new stuff on the road today.

Hev,

You could quietly slip a sixer in the RH side of the Mack cab. Bet the asphalt on your side would come out just fine.

Did I recently read somewhere that the planet Mars will be the closest to Earth for viewing and that the next time this occurs will be 5,000 years from now?
