Hello
Hello, And hello again. I have been away from this list for quite some time. My wife was in and out of the hospital for about two years due to complications from a past serious injury. She has been in the clear for almost a year. We decided to resume building an Aster Lion kit that we were building together before life's disruption began. Over the last few days, I have been trying to catch up on some old familiar live steam websites. While I was trying to show off live steam generally to a new co-worker by surfing to my website about three months ago, I learned that some company is cyber-squatting my old Gardensteamers.com website . It was there a month prior, oh well. I hope to have the content moved to Gardensteamers.net next week as they wanted a few hundred dollars for the domain. When we last worked on the Lion, we were just a couple of steps away from the air test. I will have to renew my SitG subscription. I have to believe the Lion Tamer article offered operation pointers. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas. Joe Betsko http://jsb.pennsy.home.att.net http://www.gardensteamers.net (parked domain for now) eMac - I don't do windows.

Sammie Bantam (was Re: Hello???)
terry: this list -- like virtually any i've participated on in the last decade -- has ebbs and flows. there are times that dozens of messages are posted each day and then there are times -- like yesterday -- that nobody posts anything. i still would like to get a discussion going on the relative size differences between the Sammie and the Bantam -- I'm especially interested in knowing how long the smoke boxes are from the saddle tank to the door. \dmc At 5:34 PM -0400 8/29/01, Terry Griner wrote: Hello, Did everyone leave?

Hello
My name is Steve Shyvers. I live in San Jose, California. My interest in live steam engines goes back a few years. The availability of the internet a couple of years ago encouraged me to research live steam resources, and that brought me to the gauge 0 and gauge 1 live steamers. It seemed that the train people not only had the most information about miniature steam engines but they also shared it the most freely. The locomotive roster now consists of a 0-4-0 twin-cylinder modified BAGRS Project Loco, a Jane, and an assembled and operational Roundhouse Billy chassis/boiler kit that will eventually get a home-made a cab. There are plans in the works for building a couple of more small locos. Work progresses slowly on rolling stock, which is developing a definite back-woods style. I enjoy building and arbitrarily chose to model to 16 mm scale and 45 mm gauge. Someday I hope to have an elevated oval of track in the backyard. For now I use sectional track placed on the ground as a steamup track. For serious running I try to attend as many Pacific Coast Live Steamers steamups as I can. Regards,
