The guy up by the factory is a little tipsy ( :roll: I know, I'm corny) already.... :wink:

In your video, it was nice to see some of those scenes again that you made us familiar w/ some time ago, like that RR crane alongside the trax, which I told you before I liked so much. A vignette I had not seen before, the one w/ the smalll trailer camped-out by the RR water tank is very nice. I may try that on my layout, it is so nice. Also, you sure know how to make factories look like factories, old and experienced - really handsome stuff.

Have a good year ahead, filled w/ happiness,good health, and prosperity, Highrailjon.

Murph, notice it was the engine passing that toppled him. Murph, Daisy and I want you to know how much we've enjoyed you this year. We can only hope the forthcoming year can be the same. Here's a toast! After all, it is the evening for toasts. Cheers to good modeling, good hearts, and the simple joys of being alive.



Tin cups?

We've both had these weird headaches all day. No idea why, but I guess that's the reason the gods brewed beer way back in the misty times of OLD. I've noticed that beer really does help with these unexplained headaches. So, I can only say, "Tits are . . . I mean, happy NEW YEAR, hobos!" Drink up and be blessed.

What a pleasant surprise, reading these unexpected words from you. I wasn't aware you were paying any attention to my postings, but given the reverence paid to you both on this fourm, I am honored by your graciousness in speakng so kindly to me. In fact, I am so happy for your comments that I do believe you have just helped start my whole New Year on a most positive note, and you know what has been said about what a person does tonight - that what we do during tonight, esp. at the time we ring in the new year, is an indication of how the whole year will go for us - showing us where we will be focusing our energies in 2010.

So, since my wife and I are spending the whole night by ourselves, relaxing, having given myriad parties nearly every other day since Thanksgiving, I can now add your smiles as predictions of the kind of new year I can expect and need. Thank you, so very much.

Happy New Years to all my friends on MTJ. May you all have a great, safe, and prosperous 2010. I don't have a tin cup but raise my can of Root Beer to you all in a toast.

We don't have tin cups, but like the Tin Man, we do have sincere hearts and wish all the good people on this people-friendly forum, as well as to the benefactor of MTJ and its moderator, the best of health, happiness, and good-fortune in the coming year. At midnight, we will lift our glasses of champagne to all of you.

Here are our smiles for all of you, and as a train-related greeting from our house to yours, the little little house which is the model of our actual home on our layout... :D

D and Tramp, you guys look great. Jon, I like the size of that cup.

Seems that here every one is either camera shy or running amok before the block New Years Eve party. So we'll do Christmas lights.

Just before I shot the front, I heard a cracking, and, sure enough, a palm frond fell.

Blue moon rising tonight, hobos. Drink up, be safe, and have a Happy New Year!

Sorry Murph, I must have been posting as your post appeared. Is the vehicle on the right side of the drive "authentic"? I like gracefully aging 'Benz'.

Love the idea of your house on your layout and the shot of "you two".

Talk to you next year.
